ICYMI @omerida looks forward to when Elephpants can congregate again in "The Physical Herd" https://24daysindecember.net/2020/12/06/the-physical-herd/
It's only 17 days till our last post for this year. We're still looking for contributors for this year's edition, so if you have something to share, please do get in touch. https://24daysindecember.net/2020/10/30/share-your-story-with-the-phpamily/ #24DaysInDecember
For Cyber Monday, we’re offering PHP 8.0 for free! Go download it today! https://www.php.net/releases/8.0/en.php
All of PHP 7.2 and earlier are now EOL! These versions will no longer receive security updates or bug fixes. It’s time to upgrade! https://php.net/eol.php
@krinkle @pollita I don’t think this is exactly what you’re looking for, but there is https://github.com/phpbench/phpbench and https://phpbench.com (two separate projects), which might help point you in the right direction.
Such is the power of Open Source that when https://www.php.net/releases/8.0/ launched in four languages (en, pt_BR, de, and ru), someone stepped up IMMEDIATELY to provide a French translation: https://www.php.net/releases/8.0/fr.php
Note that PHP 7.2 is EOL in 3 days. After that, it will no longer receive security updates from the PHP project team. Upgrade now!

📢 It's here! #PHP8
👉 https://www.php.net/releases/8.0/en.php
Big thanks to everyone working on this release! 💪
I was kinda worried that some bit of the php.net website wasn't going to cope well with the new major version number (due to some quirks in our data structures), but it carried on like a champ.
PHP is really good at running really bad code really well.... even when that bad code is the php.net website.
Very special thank you to @pollita and @carusogabriel, #php8 release managers, and to all the contributors who put in countless hours to make PHP 8 possible! 🥳🎉🎊🍾 #php8hype
We had a great panel of people last night at azPHP! All about PHP8!

If you’re on Board Game Arena, I’ve set up a PHP Community group. Feel free to join the group to find PHPers who like board games! #php #boardgames https://en.boardgamearena.com/group?id=7220436
I’ve set up https://phpc.chat as a community chat resource; it’s powered by open source https://Rocket.Chat. I don’t want it to take the place of other community spaces, but you’re welcome to use it for anything related to the PHP programming language, if your project needs a home.
We recently performed a massive purge of spam accounts on this instance, and we've temporarily disabled signups. Many apologies for the inconvenience!
