Good evening,
Since phpng, int64, and perhaps other future changes in PHP 7 are a pretty big change, I think we
ought to bump the major version number of the Zend Engine, from Zend Engine 2 to Zend Engine 3.
I have a pull request open which would do this, although it needs updating to correct extensions
checking for ZEND_ENGINE_2: https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/829
Are there any objections to the idea? I realise work on the engine isn’t done, but that doesn’t
mean we can’t name the new version. After all, we’ve named PHP 7, and it doesn’t exist yet,
either.
Thoughts?
