Hey all, I'd like to add my 2c:
I agree that php.net is not the right place to express our personal citizenship. It's better to use Twitter, Facebook, or another social network for these purposes. If you believe that the PHP community is obliged to show solidarity on the php.net, and not every person personally, I suggest that instead of a banner we release a News on the main page. >Why is this important? There are a lot of PHP developers in Russia. >A lot of them, sadly, have been brainwashed by Putin's propaganda. >They still must have a lot of respect to PHP authors and creators. >Seeing that these people, who have their respect, are against the war and for >the freedom of Ukraine, might have an impact. I can not answer for all Russian developers, but I can judge by myself and my social circle: we're against the war, "military operation" or any other aggression, whatever you want to call it. Also, colleagues from the IT industry have drafted an open letter to the national government [1-2]. In addition to highlighting the problem, we can also add these links: in this case, developers from Russia will see, that not only people, who have their respect do not support the war, but also their fellow countrymen.
