#RHEL 9.6 is Released:

#PHP version 8.1 is out of support.
PHP version 8.3 is now available in a new module stream.

So users can choose between 8.0, 8.2, and 8.3.

With 8.3, the password hashing functions now support Argon2 algorithms, and the "redis" extension joins the available packages.

RHEL-10 is Released!

PHP version 8.3 is supplied by default and will be supported for the lifetime of the distribution.

Password hashing functions now support Argon2 algorithms.

The "redis" extension joins the available packages.

🎂20 years!

I opened my repository 20 years ago to share my packaging work with other Fedora Core 3 users.

Starting packaging PHP 5.0 to enable more extensions (especially oci8).

The CentOS, RHEL, and clones repository was open 2 years later (for EL 4 and 5).
