First and foremost, as PHP is an open source project and the lifeblood of any open source project is accepting that people do come (and go). I've been watching internals for a few years and that is clearly obvious. So it seems silly for any open source project to argue against newcomers. On

I see the same people who had a problem with the EOL (end of life) date for 5.4, 5.5, are going to be the same people who have a problem with 5.6 EOL. Extended the support will only enable those and others to validate their excuse for not needing to migrate to the new code base. I agree, a date

Adding extended support does justify (provide an excuse) for others not adapt or upgrade to new code. While PHP Development obvious cannot control the actions of others (obviously), extending support does unintentionally enables poor practices. Once support is ended, people do begin to migrate.

I think 5.6 should not be extended. It should be treated like any other release and given the same length of time originally planned for any previous release. It should not be the responsibility of PHP Development to be used as an excuse not to update adapt to newer code standards. Which is
