It ain't. If you have got large sites that are built with a framework that
requires an older PHP-version you will have to (a) convince the site owner
that an upgrade is absolutely necessary, (b) agree on the functional specs
of the site after the upgrade, (c) agree on a price quote with the content
owner, (d) get that quote accepted by the purchase department of the site
owner. Each of these steps can easily take several months and then you are
not even starting building.
