Dear William,

I need to reopen this ITP due to HTTP dependency chain requirements for
FOSSology's web infrastructure.

HTTP STACK DEPENDENCY:
FOSSology requires php-ralouphie-getallheaders version 3.0.0 as part of its
Slim Framework 3.x HTTP dependency chain for consistent header handling.

TECHNICAL INTEGRATION:
- FOSSology uses Slim Framework 3.12.3 for web components
- Slim 3.x requires consistent HTTP header access via getallheaders()
- FOSSology's web/API components depend on this specific polyfill version
- Version 3.0.0 provides compatibility with FOSSology's PSR-7 HTTP stack

HTTP DEPENDENCY CONSISTENCY:
This polyfill completes FOSSology's HTTP infrastructure:
- Slim Framework 3.12.3
- PSR-HTTP-Message 1.0.1
- PSR-HTTP-Factory 1.0.1
- Getallheaders polyfill 3.0.0

All components must be version-consistent for proper HTTP handling.

EVIDENCE FROM INTEGRATION:
FOSSology's composer dependencies specify this version to ensure:
- Consistent HTTP header access across web environments
- Compatibility with Slim 3.x HTTP message handling
- Stable web component and API functionality

PROPOSED SOLUTION:
Package as php-ralouphie-getallheaders-3.0 to support FOSSology's HTTP
stack requirements alongside current Debian versions.

JUSTIFICATION:
This maintains FOSSology's complete HTTP infrastructure without forcing
architectural changes requiring extensive upstream development.

REQUEST:
Please reopen to discuss providing getallheaders polyfill 3.0.0 for
FOSSology's HTTP stack compatibility.

Best regards,
Ahmed Gamal
