A Week of Symfony #791 (21-27 February 2022)
February 27, 2022 • Published by Javier Eguiluz
This week, Symfony announced that Symfony 6.1 will require PHP 8.1. This is needed to fix some issues related to PHP preloading. We also decided to extend Symfony 6.0 maintenance by an additional 6 months to give you more time to prepare the migration to PHP 8.1. Finally, Symfony announced the last talks and speakers for the SymfonyLive Paris 2022 conference.
