About PHP 4.1 What I can't tell from the PHP announcement is how long they plan to keep register_globals around. In ONE place it says something like "We have no plans to discontinue register_globals", but in another place it says it might be discontinued or devalued soon. It'd be a REAL drag to have to go audit everything I've ever written in PHP to change all my global variables. (Especially since I'd been so careful about security while writing them.) Anyone know what the internal PHP/Zend plans are for it?
