So, +1 on this initiative. What is the worst case? Come February and we see that things have not moved. We evaluate it them and see what other projects did, and decide either to stay the course, or go back to PHP4.

I think this is a bad idea. If we go into this process with this attitude, we won't honestly try to get providers to PHP 5 because there is no need to for them – they will know that software projects won't move to 5 when the majority of providers still run 4. When we really make Drupal (and all the other projects) PHP 5 only starting from this date, providers won't have a choice but to upgrade. Konstantin Käfer – http://kkaefer.com/
