Reviving Ratchet: Let's give Ratchet the love it deserves!
Ratchet is a great piece of software and it is successfully used in countless projects! But let's be realistic: It could use some love!

At the moment, we're making very good progress with ReactPHP v3 (see e.g. [reactphp/event-loop#271](https://github.com/reactphp/event-loop/issues/271)) and Framework X. As a next step, we want to achieve the same level of velocity for Ratchet. Supporting the latest PHP and PHPUnit versions feels like a good starting point to bring Ratchet back to speed again, followed by tackling the huge pile of open support requests. So in a gist, we know what to do with Ratchet, the problem is that we have to find the time to actually do it. I've also reached out to the other maintainers, but before spending too much time on the details, I would like to see how much demand there is to work out a sustainable plan for the longer-term development.

As a first step, help us figure out demand by leaving a comment or an emoji reaction:

* 👍 Like the idea, generally interested
* ❤️ Love the idea and would consider sponsoring further development of Ratchet
* 🚀 Ratchet is used in our company (let's have a chat!)
* Anything else, please join the discussion!
