I'm not completely sure about others in this thread, but my personal
view is that PHP 5.7 should be released at around the same time as PHP
7. It should contain E_DEPRECATED warnings where applicable, such as
proposed in the multiple default arguments RFC. I've also heard talk
of removing some features in PHP 7 that are currently E_STRICT; in
this case we would also move them to E_DEPRECATED in PHP 5.7.
In summary, I think PHP 5.7 should primarily contain deprecations to
ease the transition to 7, and should not take significant resources
away from PHP 7.
