== Detailed Description ==

Update the PHP stack in Fedora to latest version 8.2.x.

Fedora has a 6 months cycle, PHP a 1 year cycle, our common practice
for some years:

* 2 Fedora cycles for each PHP minor release (exceptions below)
* 3 Fedora cycles for latest minor (e.g. 5.6 or 7.4) to give more time
before next major
* 1 Fedora cycle for first major (e.g. 7.0 or 8.0)

== Benefit to Fedora ==

Provides the latest PHP version to developers and system administrators.


== Scope ==
* Proposal owners: Check Koschei status. Test with latest version to
ensure compatibility. Work with upstream on bug fixing. Needed mass
rebuild (C extensions) done by change owner.
