Just for clarity, Nikita didn't propose such thing that the feature can skip the RFC process. The exact words he used is the following: This does not necessarily need an RFC, but needs a discussion on the > mailing list at least, as the reception here seems somewhat negative. Default target version is > 8.1 now, though exceptions can be made for small features. All this means is: - The discussion on the ML is a must - IPHP 8.1 is the default target Regards: Máté
