Hello,

Here is a proposal for an introduction of the PHP Technical Committee:

https://wiki.php.net/rfc/php_technical_committee

The main purpose of this RFC is to have better decision process when
technical conflicts between developer arise.

This was created in collaboration with other people involved in PHP core
development and the PHP Foundation. Larry has done a lot of work in
rewording the text and he is also a co-author of this RFC.

Feel free to comment here or if you have just some wording suggestions
there is also a PR in my util repository for easier collaboration on the
text: https://github.com/bukka/php-util/pull/1 . So feel free to comment /
send suggestion there as well.

Regards

Jakub

It appears the RFC is not yet listed in the overview at
https://wiki.php.net/rfc, is this intentional?

Ah forgot about it. Fixed now. Thanks.

I think this is a very good initiative, so good luck with it!

Question:
- Is this something that could be used to point out general areas for
improvement of PHP, e.g. like a roadmap/wishlist for 9.0?

That's not really the intent here.  It's possible/likely that people elected to the TC will "carry more weight" in any discussions about roadmaps, but there's a chicken-and-egg question there as well.  (The kind of people that would get elected are probably the kind that would be listened to.)

There's no plans in this RFC to change how feature development works.
