Would this be a good point in time to to question the current state of the PHP-Group as defined in https://www.php.net/credits.php? If the PHP-Group as a loose connection of veterans (used in the best sense here) is responsible for decisions like the one at hand here we might have to think about how that group is put together. Especially when of the ten people in the group only 3 seem to be still active. It looks like a bad idea to wait until no one is active any more and we need response from that group... Please note that this is not about breaking down the group or questioning the responsibilities (even though those as well seem to be rather loosely defined). This is merely about whether there should be some fresh blood in the group to reduce the bus-factor.
