The two statements do contradict each other a little bit, and I am ok with another release, but technically Marcus is correct. -Rasmushow about this. We edit php_config.h to be version 4.4.8pl1. Then provide a patch for download. All reasonable distributions will pick up that patch anyway. But at least we didn't do a release as we promised, we wouldn't.Uh, no. We didn't promise we wouldn't make releases. It clearly says that if there are security issues we look at them case-by-case to see if we should make a release. There are security issues, we make a release. There is nothing more to discuss about this.
