Good evening, There has been some debate about whether to make “PHP 5.7". I have made a very simple RFC. It proposes a final minor version of PHP 5, PHP 5.7, to be released at the same time as PHP 7, with no new features whatsoever.
I am wondering why we need that? no new features.... I think we can extend 5.6 release cycle to avoid that..
I tend to agree with Xinchen here. A new minor release just to introduce a few deprecation messages? It sounds like a lot of work (it also need to be maintained) for little gain. I think that doesn't also match the plans of other (accepted?) RFCs that were targeted for 5.7. I think I've seen it many times.
