Notes:

• The first beta marks the final feature freeze, all changes hereafter commits are only stabilization/fixes only
• Releases not yet given a 'title' are yet to be determined done
• Once 5.4 reaches EOL (Sep 14 2015), PHP 7 is branched out and master will become 7.1 done

• Analyze and pick from Github: https://github.com/php/php-src/labels/PHP7

• Make sure that we don't have unintentional BC breaks, and every change is mentioned in the appropriate place (NEWS/UPGRADING/etc.).
• Work together with the documentation team, so the docs are already up to date when the final 7.0.0 is released.
• Make sure that the credits are up-to-date (ext/standard/credits.c, ext/standard/credits_ext.h, ext/standard/credits_sapi.h).
• Work together with the Windows team, make sure the website is up to date with minimum versions supported, libraries are updated and all that.
