Created attachment 198312 [details] Patch to change default version of PHP The current version of PHP is 7.1 This is EOL at the end of 2018. I talked to @tz. We would switch to PHP 7.2. @tz is unfortunately busy. That's how I'll take it. Currently Maintaine I also use the PHP ports. I think an exp-run is needed.
From http://php.net/supported-versions.php , 7.1 has security support until 1 Dec 2019. 5.6 and 7.0 should be deprecated with an expiration date.

(In reply to commit-hook from comment #6) I can't say I'm happy about the change, mostly because I think it is too early. 7.1 was made default less than two months ago. I think default versions shouldn't be changed on a monthly basis.
