[PHP-DEV] [VOTE] Duration class

Hi

I just opened voting on the “Duration class” RFC.

Wiki Page: PHP: rfc:duration_class
Discussion Thread: php.internals: [RFC] Duration class

The RFC contains two votes:

- One primary vote requiring a 2/3 majority to accept the proposal.
- One secondary vote to decide on method naming, where the abbreviated names will be selected if they reach a 2/3 majority, and the full names otherwise.

Voting closes 2026-07-31 17:00:00 UTC.

Best regards
Tim Düsterhus

Voting just closed. The RFC was accepted with 35 (Yes) to 1 (No) votes and 2 Abstentions, which is 97%.

The secondary vote for the method names was in favor of full names with 30 of 32 votes (94%) and 3 Abstentions.
