[Vtigercrm-developers] Vtiger CRM 7.4.0 GA Release

[Sukhdev Mohan]

Why I'm not surprised ?
Dude even if it's community driven there needs to be a clear roadmap to
estimate next release time, testing and what to concentrate on.

It's not a little feature we are talking about but the new release: we
should allmdecide what needs to be done.

- Update dependencies
- Remove non maintained dependencies
- Introduce Composer to manage them easily
- PSR0-4?
- PHP 8 compatibility
And there much more. We need a clear roadmap period.
