Developer Notes for Blesta 5.2

Preparing for PHP 8

Reminder: We stopped using Html::ifset() and Html::_() for PHP 8 and recommend that you do the same.

Reminder: Registrar modules should define their type in config.json as: "type": "registrar",

Blesta no longer supports versions older than PHP 7.2, so there is no longer a need to ship hotfixes.
