Probably not directly. The reason is PHP 5, as is, is pretty darn good
tool for what it is being used for. Of course, it could be 10x faster,
it could have more extensions and it could have multithreading and
native Unicode support ;) But even as is, it's not bad and allows to do
a lot. So people do not feel a burning need to jump to a new version
yet, let alone learn new concepts and develop new frameworks based on
these concepts. It doesn't mean what we have added in PHP 7 is bad - but
it'll probably take some time until people start really using it.
