I think it is really strange that people actually think about no longer<br>supporting something that is -in fact- the biggest part of their success: the<br>fact that PHP and MySQL is available on nearly every host. If you move away
<br>from that, you are going to kill yourself, your business, your websites and<br>the Drupal community. Within a few months, the bulk of the developers will<br>have moved on to a CMS that they can actually install, using the tools and
<br>systems they have available or can afford.<br><br>Bčr<br><br></blockquote></div><br>There is no doubt about this. All discussion on PHP5 and OOP is based on equal availability in common hostings, etc., for a time when PHP5 is as omnipresent as PHP4 is now.
