RE: [PHP3] Slashdot: PHP 4.0.0 Announcement

Try this once again. LinuxToday had it posted an hour or so ago with a link to the announcement on the LinuxPR site http://linuxpr.com/releases/1866.html Frank -----Original Message----- From: James Byers [mailto:jbyers@valinux.com] Sent: Monday, May 22, 2000 14:27 To: php-general@lists.php.net Cc: php3@lists.php.net; hemos@slashdot.org Subject: [PHP3] Slashdot: PHP 4.0.0 Announcement Slashdot is carrying a 4.0.0 announcement that does gross injustice to the changes made from 3.x/4.0RCx. It lists today's ChangeLog as the set of changes since the last release!! The text of the announcement follows this message. Does someone from the PHP Group have a real announcement text for Slashdot to put up? Or a concise list of new features? Let's get this ridiculous announcement cleaned up before too many people see it. Thanks, James PHP-4.0.O Released [ Apache ] Posted by Hemos on Monday May 22, @01:55PM from the sig-new-version dept.
