RE: [PHP-DEV] PHP 5.3 RM / PHP 5.2.5RC1

Ilia, Thanks a lot for the great job you've done (and the job you will continue doing on PHP 5.2.x, security and as a contributor in general). You have shown true leadership throughout the releases and have been very good at making the quality/features trade-offs. Johannes, best of luck. PHP 5.3 is going to be a huge release for PHP and I'm sure you'll be successful in helping us get there.
