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

Hi Walter,
I talked with my boss today. We think that the effort might me a bit much to
pay for a single company. Why not set up a project on a crowdfunding platform
and ask more hosting companies to participate?
We (comsolit.com) would be interested to do this job. But it would be fair and
correct to first ask the regular PHP Team members whether one of them might
want to work on this, like Ondřej Surý, Thijs Kinkhorst or Lior Kaplan.
Do you have a tight time frame for this?</pre>

As I've mentioned before, we are happy with what we've done to
support php5.6 on wheezy for now, so we'll gladly wait for Ondrej
and team to get the wheels rolling post-jessie. <br>
"I now have a GSoC student willing to work on that and it's
post-jessie material anyway"<br>
<br>
thanks<br>
<br>
