The `master` branch is still running v4.6.3 (not yet released, but soon) and will work as usual.\r\n\r\nI mentioned this [back in March](https://github.com/snipe/snipe-it/issues/5183), and it's finally That Time<sup>TM</sup>. Debian users will have to take a few extra steps to get PHP 7.1.x, but that's [outlined very clearly here](https://gist.github.com/tokoiwesley/06f6f74b23a5dac6e25f079ee7604349).\r\n\r\nWe'll likely release v4.6.3 (what's currently on master) in the next few days as a bugfix release, but that will be the last of the v4.x series, barring anything horrible happening. \r\n\r\n### If you're working on feature pull requests...\r\n\r\nPlease work from the current `develop` branch, and make sure you rebase before submitting the PR, so that we can review and (hopefully) accept your PR without tons of backporting. Feature PRs made from an outdated version of the `develop` branch, or based off of the `master` branch will not be considered. We're sorry about that, but we need to keep this upgrade process as smooth as possible.\r\n\r\n### If you're working on hotfix (urgent bugfix) pull requests...\r\n\r\nPlease use `master` as your base branch and submit your PRs against `master` for now. I'll merge them into `master` and will then pull them into the new `develop` branch separately. \r\n\r\n### Timing on v5.0.0 Release\r\n\r\nWe do not currently have a timeframe, so please don't ask. If I had to ballpark it, I'd say a few months, but seriously, we just don't know yet.\r\n\r\nWhile we always strive to release good code as quickly as we can, Snipe-IT is a deceptively large app, and a framework *and* PHP version upgrade requires extensive testing. We're working on a thorough test plan for our new QA hire, and all that stuff takes time. \r\n\r\nCurrently we're working *only* on feature parity between the old and upcoming versions. We're looking pretty good on that front, and should hopefully be able to start working on new features for v5.0.0 soon.\r\n\r\nAs v5.0.0 continues development, we're going to be working hard on refactoring a lot of the core structure of the app, to make it easier to extend, easier to develop new features on and easier to test. Like any app that's been around for a few years, we've accumulating some technical debt, some inefficient ways of handling fringe cases, and so on. \r\n\r\nWe're going to be working on unifying the general behavior of the models, and then extending that functionality through traits, which will allow us to finally implement more features that we currently have on assets on the other types of items (custom fields, barcodes, etc).\r\n\r\nI'll try to keep everyone updated here and on our Twitter account ([@snipeitapp](https://twitter.com/snipeitapp)). I'll be out of town in early August for Defcon (if you're going, find me - I'll have stickers!), but will still try to check in during that week as well.\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/snipe/snipe-it/issues/comments/445467639","html_url":"https://github.com/snipe/snipe-it/issues/5954#issuecomment-445467639","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/snipe/snipe-it/issues/5954","id":445467639,"node_id":"MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDQ0NTQ2NzYzOQ==","user":{"login":"stale[bot]","id":26384082,"node_id":"MDM6Qm90MjYzODQwODI=","avatar_url":"https://avatars3.githubusercontent.com/in/1724?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/stale%5Bbot%5D","html_url":"https://github.com/apps/stale","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/stale%5Bbot%5D/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/stale%5Bbot%5D/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/stale%5Bbot%5D/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/stale%5Bbot%5D/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/stale%5Bbot%5D/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/stale%5Bbot%5D/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/stale%5Bbot%5D/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/stale%5Bbot%5D/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/stale%5Bbot%5D/received_events","type":"Bot","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2018-12-08T15:35:03Z","updated_at":"2018-12-08T15:35:03Z","author_association":"NONE","body":"This issue has been automatically closed because it has not had recent activity.
