If the only changes that PHP 5.7 introduces (as compared to PHP 5.6) are deprecation warnings for features removed in PHP 7 then I am all for having PHP 5.7. With regard to the scope of PHP 7, I think it would be great to limit ourselves to "infrastructure" improvements (new executor from PHPNG, AST-based compiler (plus userland extension that provides access to the AST) from Nikita) and cleanup (removal of deprecated features). This cleaned up platform would be a great foundation for introducing new features in PHP 7.1. -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
