A new PHP release is coming soon, so it's time to get down and catch up on PER-CS! My expectation is that the next release will be 2.1, not 3.0 (though discussion may shift that).

This is a meta issue to track outstanding tasks for 2.1. We can release 2.1 when everything below has been completed, rejected, or postponed.

Please do NOT discuss details of any of these issues on this thread. Discuss them in their own threads. Only comment here with items that should be added to the consideration list.

New language functionality

• Specify hooks formatting #108
• New PHP 8.4 Syntax: new MyClass()->method() without parentheses #89
• Deprecated attribute #96
• Document how to use aviz #99
• Add section on abbreviation naming #102
• Recommend to always use exit() instead of exit #109

Existing clarifications

• Clarify that php open tags must be lowercase #100
• Add section on abbreviation naming #102
• Remove contradictory statements #103

Proposals

(That something is listed here doesn't mean it will be included, just that we should make a decision on it one way or another before release.)

• Opening brace on new line after return type when argument list is split across multiple lines #94
• Match Expressions operator alignment #92
• Multi import statements allowed? #85
