Re: Official movement to clean old PHP versions from the documentation

Good idea Stas. We could do some greping or php scripting to look for PHP4 references and move them all to a file/chapter. Perhaps that is a good idea to start writing a manual that could make it easy in the future by adding some custom DocBook tags that would be easy to fetch, like <note phpversion="4"> This feature has been added to PHP 4.3.3</note> ?
