That happened (a month ago now ;), thanks to all attendees. We did set 
up a way to join us online but were not very loud/public about it 
(probably only announced URLs just before the BoF on IRC), sorry about 
that, we’ll try and improve next time. Athos was willing to follow up 
with some actions, but the notes are already available online in the 
mean time.

We discussed about transitions, and even if we didn’t take much notes 
about that point, I believe we agreed for the sooner the better. So I’m 
following up with the the PHPUnit 12 transition tracked as #1099656 (not 
CCing the bug for now, but I intend to do so for the next steps).

We managed to take care of a lot of issue already, and only 37 issues 
still need fixing according to the experimental pseudo-excuse page for 
phpunit (I grep for “amd64: R” to get that number, but there may be more).

https://qa.debian.org/excuses.php?experimental=1&package=phpunit

If one of the packages you care about is on the list, please have a look 
at it, and please help fixing issues! The general feeling during the BoF 
was that commits were welcome on team-maintained packages repository, so 
don’t be shy, please commit those fixes (and/or other improvements) 
directly in packages VCSes.

Feel free to follow up with un upload if you can, a mail asking for 
sponsorship if you can’t, or any other useful way to communicate (bug 
report, eventually with patch, for packages outside of the team purview 
for example). Please use “Control: block 1099656 by -1” pseudo-header if 
you open such a bug to help track this transition.

Cheers!
