This sounds like we are going to do the same mistake over and over and over again. Who is forcing a hard time line on us? Why are we late in the develoment I don't get it at all. We haven't done all steps that were on our radar for 5.3. Now that we finally found time to address this we should do it. Otherwise the consequence is just that we have to do a 5.4 version immediately. What is the reason for that, who is more happy with a 5.3 now? Are we a company that makes money with selling upgrades? Best regards, Marcus

Agreed, Putting something off for no good reason is going to cause the task to lose momentum. There are three of us more than willing to look at any issues that come up post-merge, at the moment it is complete sans the zend multibyte code. Scott
