As long as there is momentum on the development process and on the QA process when needed, I don't think release momentum matters that much. It is important to keep up with the current development for 4.3.0 and also for future implementation of ze2, which I think probably takes some time. However, a bugfix release is probably expected any time now, and yeah... maybe the qa process for a 4.2.3 RC could start in the next few days, I'm willing to provide as much time as I have available if it does. I still believe backporting as many bugfixes as possible would make the transition from 4.2.3 to 4.3.0 much better for everyone. -----Original Message----- From: Zeev Suraski [mailto:zeev@zend.com] Sent: Sun 18/08/2002 2:35 AM To: derick@php.net Cc: php-dev@lists.php.net; php-qa@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP-QA] Re: [PHP-DEV] 4.2.3 I did not intend to reply to that, but generally, the reasons I think 4.2.3 should either be released in the immediate future or not released at all are (a) clashing with the 4.3.0 release process (b) momentum. The most serious problem PHP releases have suffered from, in my opinion, ever sense v4.1.0 (inclusive), is lost momentum. I was (am) willing to coordinate the release of 4.2.3 provided it gets ignited within a couple of days.
