Hi Sara,

Thank you for responding back.

We have tooling in place to allow for building and testing.  We did build the 
latest bits on 8.0 to test some things, but we are not moving forward with any 
more builds.

Please let me know how we can help with the transition as it moves forward.

Thank you for your time,

Dale

We are not, however, going to be supporting PHP for Windows in any capacity for 
version 8.0 and beyond.

Hi Dale!
First, let me convey all our appreciation for the work Microsoft has put into 
supporting PHP on Windows over the years.  Thank you also for letting us know 
in advance to not expect 8.0 builds.  I guess this decision must have only been 
made very recently since 8.0.0alpha1 and alpha2 builds were produced already.

I won't say I'm not bummed, of course.  Nevertheless, y'all gotta do what you 
gotta do.  I'm sure we can work out an alternative by the end of the year.

All the best,
-Sara Golemon (PHP 8.0 Release Manager)
