Hello!




It's good to see some life in this project! I am the maintainer of the PHP =
bindings for tidy.




With the new life what do we need to know from an API perspective=3F I am =
curious, especially since we are working on PHP 7, if we should take a look=
 at a large rewrite to take advantage of new lib tidy features or is there =
little to care about in Api changes=3F
