The voting period for the "var deprecation" RFC has ended. The final vote was 31 in favor and 23 against. The 2/3 majority requirement was not met and therefore this RFC has been DECLINED. https://wiki.php.net/rfc/var_deprecation#vote I'd like to thank everyone who participated in the discussions, and a special thanks to Thomas Punt for helping to create the proposed patch.
