 * FYI – I’m in the process of updating my sites to PHP 8, and I noticed that Publish
   to Apple News is throwing an error:

 * We haven’t tackled PHP 8 compatibility yet, but this is a good suggestion. I’ve
   created a GitHub issue to track progress: [https://github.com/alleyinteractive/apple-news/issues/842](https://github.com/alleyinteractive/apple-news/issues/842)
 * I’ll close this report in favor of the GitHub issue. This specific error will
   be fixed in the forthcoming v2.1.2 hotfix release.

 * I just released version 2.1.2, which fixes this immediate issue. We likely have
   additional testing that we need to do for PHP 8, however.
