Hello Internals, The PHP 8 release is going to be huge, and in some sense, you could say it's a whole new language. There is a feeling that more can be done to promote it more extensively.
Usually for releases, there’s a short text announcement on php.net. This may be okay for minor releases and for people who are deeply involved in PHP as they already know about the new features. But for the majority of PHP developers and potential PHP developers, it is not enough. So, the idea is to create a separate release announcement landing page to achieve the following goals: – Promote the release of PHP 8 to the PHP developers – Promote PHP as a modern language, as well as the PHP 8 release, to the general tech audience Alexander Makarov, myself, and Svetlana Belozerova, a designer from JetBrains, have created the following concept: https://i.imgur.com/6fKmTyM.jpg We’d like to hear from you about how you like the idea. If you support it, we’ll finish the design and work on a PR against github.com/php/web-php with the implementation. Looking forward to hearing what you think.
