Hi Astrid,
Thank you for your response.
Actually the php_zip extension is enabled by default in MS4W's PHP 7, so
Mapbender users can test these nightly builds without any configuration
required :) Please if anyone finds any issues with this 'alpha' MS4W
build let me know.
Thanks for letting me know about the upcoming 3.0.5.4 release with PHP 7
support, I will be sure to include that release for the MS4W community.
-jeff
