That is perfect!
I look forward to the prospect then, and appreciate the limited time.
We'll certainly consider contributing either financially or by adding
some developer time to help make this happen.
Thanks so much for the feedback.

Hi Walter,
I'm working for a small shop (3 devs) and we need PHP 5.6 for Wheezy but can't
effort to do the backporting ourself. But I'm a Debian Maintainer and have the
ability to work on this, if our company can raise some supporting funding for
this.</pre>

Hi Thomas,<br>
<br>
That sounds like an interesting prospect.<br>
As I've mentioned we have a package that we can use for wheezy that
we are happy with running at the moment.<br>
The rate of changes/patches to php5.6 might change how happy we are
with our solution down the track though... ;)<br>
I'm not familiar with the process or what channels one should work
through to provide funding and how much money we're talking.<br>
Can you perhaps elaborate on how this would work?<br>
<br>
thanks<br>
<br>
Walter<br>
