How PHP releases really get built
summary
A two-week release rhythm drives work, with alternating release managers each shipping a cycle, contributors like Remi Collet producing binary packages, and the community performing hands-on testing and feedback that triggers iterative fixes; coordinated build steps and package uploads converge toward the scheduled public drop of PHP 8.5.0 on November 20, and the process produces regular alphas and betas while maintainers triage bug reports and integrate fixes between releases.
