As one of those two people, it would help to have an official maintainer for this extension. The path for "something's broken" or "something should be different" to "committed fix" has been pretty murky. I'm interested in putting my name forward for this. It would help to know more about what's expected. In particular, when PRs poke at broader design questions with the extension, what's the maintainer's role? One example: https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/2017 Thanks, Adam
