Hi
Anyone against requiring libxml2 2.6.x for PHP 5.1?
There are new features in 5.1, which only run with 2.6 (the new error handling system, for example, or proper namespace support for SAX). Those are currently ifdef'd, but it definitively would make the life of the XML maintainers a lot easier, if we could just throw away all < 2.6 code ;)
Furthermore, ext/soap already requires 2.6.3.
If noone disagrees, we'll bump up the version number in the configure check and discard support for 2.5.
