We're getting more PRs on php-mf2 to remove deprecated stuff / upgrade to PHP8: https://github.com/microformats/php-mf2/pulls
#
gRegor
Still not sure how to best proceed on that, last discussion I chimed in on: https://github.com/microformats/php-mf2/pull/264

[preview] [jrfnl] #264 Fix PHP 8.4 compatibility / drop support for PHP < 7.1
#
[tantek]
+1 on adding PHP8 support. -1 on dropping PHP5-7 support, at least until the WordPress plugins that depend on it themselves start to require 7.1+

who may know more about the current status of which WP plugins that use php-mf2 themselves support PHP5+
#
GWG
WP has moved up to 7
#
GWG
I started moving up as well over time
#
gRegor
WP core as of v6.6 is apparently PHP7.2+, but obviously lots of sites running older versions
#
GWG
Exactly... which is why I said we should do it when there is a reason not to support it
#
gRegor
I think we'd mentioned maybe one final release supporting PHP56, then a new minor version with minimum PHP7.2
#
gRegor
I haven't had much energy to think/work on it honestly

Would like to get a new release pushed out, whichever way we decide. Last release was 2022-02-09
