Hi

we just opened the vote for the "Throwable Hierarchy Policy for Extensions" policy RFC:

RFC: PHP: rfc:extension_exceptions
Discussion: [RFC] Throwable Hierarchy Policy for Extensions - Externals
PR: Add Throwable policy by TimWolla · Pull Request #17 · php/policies · GitHub

As with every RFC, a 2/3 majority is required. Voting ends 2025-05-27 at 12:30:00 UTC.

---------------------

This policy RFC is the first new policy since the introduction of the php/policies repository and the comments on the PR indicated some confusion about the scope of the PR. Please familiarize yourself with the RFC introducing the policy repository:

and also the README in the policies repository:

Please also check out the “References” section in the RFC and the RFC discussion for further background context about the proposed policy.

Best regards

For some reason I thought the vote would have ended today instead of yesterday. Anyways: The RFC was accepted with 25 (Yes) to 1 (No) vote (96%), with one “Yes” vote arriving after the announced end date.

Given this is a Policy RFC and we voted on an exact commit, the “implementation” is already ready. I'll ask the maintainers of the policy repository to squash merge the PR :slight_smile:
