Re: [PEAR] Port Image_Color and Image_Canvas to PHP8

Hello,

Following the progress from yesterday, I opened 2 PRs for Image_Color:

  * #3 <https://github.com/pear/Image_Color/pull/3> adds GitHub actions
    for the current code.
  * #4 <https://github.com/pear/Image_Color/pull/4> ports the code to
    PHP 8.4 (the branch is based on the branch from the previous PR so
    it's best to first merge #3).

See the details on GitHub.

With that, I think one can create a new version of the Image_Color 
package (1.0.7). This will be used to port Image_Canvas to PHP 8.

Thanks in advance,
Mathieu
