Yes, definitely. But what do you think about the versioning scheme Jani proposed?
-1 from me on it the way it is, I don't think that bumping the middle digit for every functionality change is a good idea. Bug-fixes and new functionality is intermixed in our development process. I'd propose copying the Linux/Apache/MySQL approach, where the first digit is bumped in case of a serious infrastructure change/rewrite; The middle digit is bumped for things that strongly affect the way you use PHP (e.g., turning register_globals off by default, or something equally far-reaching); The 3rd digit is bumped for everything else.
