If it's not, the other options aren't all that attractive. Users presumably have a reason for setting their error_reporting at a certain level, and if wholesale changes to PHP function names are going to force them to either: not use the error_reporting they need, or not upgrade until they and their clients alter *many* pages Large-scale ISPs may have a lot of unhappy clients if they aren't forewarned sufficiently that these changes are occurring. To scale down, though, perhaps this is more feasible: Release X: A formal announcement to PHP-announce (does that exist still?) and PHP-General Documentation changes (somehow) to indicate which functions are changing Release X+1 E_NOTICE Release X+2 E_WARNING Release X+3 E_ERROR . . .
