I've just cut the release branch for PHP-8.0.0 final which will be released in one week on 26 Nov. Minor bug fixes can continue to be merged via the PHP-8.0 branch for inclusion in 8.0.1, but 8.0.0 will be precisely what 8.0.0RC5 contained unless serious issues are encountered.
If you feel you have a fix which should be included in the 8.0.0 final release, please let Gabriel and I know which commit you would like cherry-picked onto that release spur. Please also help me out by reviewing the NEWS, UPGRADING, and UPGRADING.INTERNALS files: https://github.com/php/php-src/blob/PHP-8.0.0/ Lastly, there are likely still gaps in the documentation of new features, so please take a moment away from code to make the manual better. -Sara
