Re: "PHP 6 and MySQL 5 for Dynamic Web Sites" Book

Hi all. I monitor this list and occasionally contribute as an amateur so please forgive a question that might seem terribly obvious to those in the know. I'm confused about all this PHP 6 talk. Until now I thought I was right up there, because I worked with PHP 5.29 and was ready to upgrade to 5.3. How does it happen that PHP 5.3 has just been released, but books already exist about PHP 6 ? I searched google and so on, but still can't really work out how the PHP development cycle works. Given that PHP 6 exists, does that mean I'm "behind the times" working with 5.29 or 5.3? I only just figured out that I can get the internet on my *computer*. Up until now I'd just been accessing it with a pencil and paper but the computer version is so much better!
