Problem/Motivation
Currently, Drupal 8.9's recommended PHP version is 7.2, which will be EOL before 8.9 is.
Proposed resolution
Increase the recommended PHP version to 7.3.
Remaining tasks
User interface changes
Sites on 7.2 will now see the status report info message:
It is recommended to upgrade to PHP version 7.3 or higher for the best ongoing support. See PHP's version support documentation and the Drupal 8 PHP requirements handbook page for more information.
Before
After
API changes
None.
Data model changes
None.
Release notes snippet
Drupal 8.9 runs on all PHP 7 versions; however, it is recommended to update to at least PHP 7.3. Only PHP 7.3 and 7.4 are supported by the PHP maintainers until Drupal 8.9's end-of-life in November 2021.
