We're discussing RFCs. Small and fairly simple code change does not need
an RFC. So either:
a) this change is indeed small and simple, and does not belong to

I see it exactly opposite - since we have no quorum requirement,

I don't think this is a good idea. I see no scenario it improves -

That sounds mostly good to me. My feedback would be:
First, I wish people (including RFC authors) took more time to think

Now THIS is a sensible proposal! It resolves the biggest issues in a very
simple and straightforward manner. And unlike the other RFC, this proposal
does not feel like an exclusionary power grab.

Afternoon Nikita, internals,
In stark contrast to the proposals being made to make contributing to PHP
more complex, slower, and burdened with bureaucracy: These are elegant
proposals that I think will invite new contributors to join our ranks,
which we no doubt need. They will allow current contr

After discussing the topic with a number of current and former
