Is it proper to support php-5.6 version at least?

The php-5.6 and php-7.0 are unmaintained on official PHP team.

And the php-7.0 has been release for about three years.

If we want to keep the package e compatibility, I think we can let the package require php-7.0 version at least.

See? I debated that, too...

I figured if it was going from, literally, 5.0.0, maybe it'll be too much of a shock to active users, especially on legacy sites?

OK but. I just started thinking... since this will be in effect a new project, I officially hard forked it to phpexpertsinc/chromephp and will be releasing a new composer package. It will definitely target PHP 7.0.

Maybe we can release two versions.

One is about supporting PHP 5.6.

Another one is about supporting PHP 7.1+.

This can be compatible with PHP 5 users.

That's right.

I think releasing the new version is the proper way because original package has been inactive for about long time.
