#PHP 8.6 Deprecations are open for voting. Lots of things to review; might want to pack a snack when you vote: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/deprecations_php_8_6

I wrote a document on how to provision #php #infrastructure for yourself. If you're into that kind of thing:

Really enjoyed presenting this for MergePHP, if you manage #servers make sure you check out #ansible if you're not using any kind of configuration management tool
Bonus section showing off how #php uses Ansible for its own #infrastructure management and configuration

8.3 was arbitrary; nothing was stopping me from going to 8.5 other than phpBB/media wiki limitations.
Custom login auth forces everything to auth through phpBB, which is gated through a service key check: you have to be a service subscriber to register. Protects everything and leaves auth at the forum.

Fleet fan here (and hoping Chicago gets a team). The #PWHL is great. And it's free on YouTube!

Are there any #elephpants currently for sale in mass quantities (50+) by their creators? I'm building a $project and would like some real test data. #phpc

If your #elephpant is listed and you don't want it, just report it, we'll happily remove it.
Sign up to get an email alert when we approve newly submitted Elephpant sales.
This is NOT for 1-on-1 sales or small bundles. This is for those doing large runs or those who have large amounts of stock for sale.

3 apps, all running on 5.6 before I started.
Now PHPBB and MediaWiki are extracted to subdomains, and the main site app at the root domain is also upgraded to 8.x.
Skipped 7.x entirely. 5.6 -> 8.3 + each app is isolated and can run on its own PHP version in isolation VS having to be run together.
