Perhaps I missed this part, but is "port to PHP 8-preview" or "port to JIT" even a thing? Presumably, just like with 7.0, any reasonably well-behaved application would be able to run without modification or with only minor modification on 8.0, no? I mean, if someone wanted to try out their massive application to see if the JIT helped it, why would it be more work than (psuedocode): git clone myapp.git cd myapp docker run php8-preview *open web browser* --Larry Garfield
