There are always new versions coming out. This is how they deal with fixes and patches. Part of the reason (I believe) Christian wants 2.6.x is to deal with certain features that aren't in the 2.5.x feature set, and that's probably also why ext/soap needs 2.6.3. -adam -- adam@trachtenberg.com | http://www.trachtenberg.com author of o'reilly's "upgrading to php 5" and "php cookbook" avoid the holiday rush, buy your copies today!
