He suggested this on the mailing list and received no objections; Ere offered some feedback which was incorporated into the pull request.

-PHP 7.0 is now at end of life, and supporting it in VuFind is holding us back from taking advantage of some bug fixes in dependencies (for example: [[https://github.com/zendframework/zend-code/pull/158|zend-code #158]], which resolves some PHP warnings seen when running VuFind under PHP 7.3). Demian polled for objections to raising the minimum version requirement to PHP 7.1.+PHP 7.0 is now at end of life, and supporting it in VuFind is holding us back from taking advantage of some bug fixes in dependencies (for example: [[https://github.com/zendframework/zend-code/pull/158|zend-code #158]], which resolves some PHP warnings seen when running VuFind under PHP 7.3). Demian polled for objections to raising the minimum version requirement to PHP 7.1. Due to low attendance, he will take this issue to the mailing lists.

-The last two major releases came out in July. If we want to aim for a similar date this year, July 15, 2019 would probably be the logical target. However, on that timeline (and given Ere's temporary unavailability), we are unlikely to make much further progress before freezing the code, making 6.0 a smaller release than past major releases (though not insignificant -- there are still some worthwhile improvements). There was discussion about whether to aim for July or give ourselves more time by aiming for August or September instead.+The last two major releases came out in July. If we want to aim for a similar date this year, July 15, 2019 would probably be the logical target.

There was discussion about whether to aim for July or give ourselves more time by aiming for August or September instead. Given the major developments coming for 7.0 (Laminas and potentially a new theme), it was decided to go ahead with a July release of a relatively small-scale 6.0 so that work on 7.0 can begin sooner.

 +Demian sent out an email on Monday polling for interest in a 2019 VuFind Summit. If an in-person event is held, the dates will be October 14-15, 2019. An online roadmapping and update session will be set up for October 14 regardless of whether other in-person activities take place.
