I like this: +1.
If it works well, then we probably want to announce the calendar a
little earlier for the 2015 release, since there's now a pretty narrow
window to propose an RFC and have it voted on before January 16. By my
estimation, an RFC will have to enter "in discussion" by December 26
(hope nobody has plans over the holidays) to be accepted for PHP 5.6,
assuming minimal two week discussion and one week voting periods.

number to the 2015 release. :)
