I spoke to Johannes and few other core developers and I think it is
time we give someone new a shot at the helm. I've been doing 5.X
RMing since 5.0.3 (almost 2 years now, seems like forever) and its
time for some fresh perspective, I think 5.3 will prove a good time
for that to keep with our tradition of changing RMs on every minor
release.
We have well documented (Thanks to Lukas) RMing processes now that
should make the bureaucracy ;-) a little simpler and I feel Johannes
definitely has enough technical awareness of the various parts of PHP
to do a great job at the RM role.
Unless any objections are raised, or someone else wants to throw
their hat into the mix, I'd like to confirm Johannes at his new role
as 5.3 RM and wish him the best of luck and much co-operation from
all developers.
In the mean time, I will continue to RM the 5.2.X release, which will
continue to be actively maintained up until 5.3 is released and use
this opportunity to provide 2 week notice of the upcoming 5.2.5RC1,
so please, get your pending fixes in. The goal is get 5.2.5 out early/
mid November.
