PHP 5.5 came out this week, and that officially put 5.3 into a limited support status. Security patches will only be committed for one year, and then PHP 5.3.x will no longer be supported. Given that, I think we should bump the minimum PHP version for Drupal to 5.4. Most shared hosts allow you to manually specify PHP 5.4, and I imagine that 5.4 will soon be the default.

Well, I think in terms of features we will definitely want traits for D9.

The 9.0.x branch will open for development soon, and the placeholder 9.x branch should no longer be used. Only issues that require a new major version should be filed against 9.0.x (for example, removing deprecated code or updating dependency major versions). New developments and disruptive changes that are allowed in a minor version should be filed against 8.9.x, and significant new features will be moved to 9.1.x at committer discretion. For more information see the Allowed changes during the Drupal 8 and 9 release cycles and the Drupal 9.0.0 release plan.
