[ snipped the specific issues ]

I’d like to volunteer to help improve the PHP website and coordinate
efforts. Looking forward to your feedback.

Once upon a time, management of the web site(s) was handled by those on the webmaster mailing list. It doesn't look like there's any active discussion there now, just automated commit messages.

Looking at the commits to the php-web repo, it looks like Luffy (sy-records (Luffy) · GitHub) and Sergey Panteleev (saundefined (Sergey Panteleev) · GitHub) are the 'code owners' of that repo, so I guess they're leading the charge these days?

There's overlap with whoever is actually managing the servers, which was (and still is?) the people on the systems@php.net alias.

Maybe it would make sense to stand up a new mailing list that could serve as a discussion space for those working on this aspect of the project.

It's an area where I'd like to get back to contributing, too.

Hi Jim,

Maybe it would make sense to stand up a new mailing list that could serve as a discussion space for those working on this aspect of the project.

I don’t think this solves the problem, php-webmaster is still active but there is just no communication there,
when adding a new ML, we will just have a few “silent” mailing lists.

So I guess they’re leading the charge these days

Not really, we just decided to start triaging the issues and PRs that are piling up in the repository, a little at a time.

Here is the original PR [1], anyone who wants to do the site can add themselves to CODEOWNERS
(or not and just deal with it from time to time).

There’s overlap with whoever is actually managing the servers

I think it makes sense to clarify this with Derick,
I don’t have the exact information, except for the info in the wiki [2].
