Re: PHP 5.3 Suggested Feature List (Summary)

For the most part it seems that there is a general consensus on the features to go into PHP 5.3, my suggestion is that all features with

another change for PHP 6 and/or PHP 5.4 (if that comes to pass). Either way, there definitely appears to be a set a solid reasons to start the 5.3 branch.

Will there be also 5.2.5? From the feature set looks like 5.3 is going to take some time and in the meantime we have bugfixes, etc. - so it makes sense to me.

The "agenda" for 5.3 looks to be fairly busy, and I don't think we can wait 6-7 months between releases, so 5.2.X branch will need to be maintained while 5.3 is being made ready for production.

Does that statement imply that PHP6 is at least another 12 months away :( Does all this effort simply push the adoption of PHP6 as the main branch further back.
