If we proceed like this, there will be no way we could revert to support PHP 4 in February 2008.
If I can believe my own projections (http://buytaert.net/php-is-dead- long-live-php), PHP5 will have a 30% adoption rate by February 2008, rather than the current 20%. Maybe February 2008 is a little too early?
Not if we can help push it ;)
That is precisely the intent of the GoPHP5 effort. :-) Change the curve so that it's not 20%-30%, but 50%+. That pushes past the tipping point, and PHP 4 can more quickly go the direction of PHP 3. To do that, though, requires market pressure. We're trying to be that market pressure. --Larry Garfield
