Latest LTS finally!!
Laravel 9 was finally released on February 22nd, 2022.
At first, we are thrilled with LTS (Long Term Support) of Laravel 9.
However, Mr.Otwell (The author of Laravel) decided to postpone the LTS.
Why Postponed?
You can find out the reason why the LTS is postponed on Mr.Otwell Tweet.
In short, a pull request on Symfony Repository causes the postponement of the LTS.
LTS Again?
The answer is "Maybe or Maybe not".
In my opinion, if the PR were rejected, There would be high probability that the LTS comes back.
What do you think about it?
Feel free to leave your thought on discussion.
Update! PHP 8.1 needed from Symfony 6.1
The PR was merged yesterday on Symfony.
Therefore, PHP 8.1 will be the minimum requirement for Symfony 6.1.
Read this article for more information.

In Laravel, they have already merged a PR which changes the minimum PHP Version From 8.0 to 8.1 for Laravel 10.
