Well, such a change tends to create a big buzz, without mentioning stuff like certifications, trainings,... We should avoid creating a virtual PHP 6.0 which will contain all the BC stuff while all features appears in 5.x. By doing so we will keep some shit in 5.x forever and won't have anything appealing enough to migrate to 6.0! > Merging (by and or by magic :) features into branch created from 5.3 just sounds like plane > crash waiting to happen.. > > ---Jani
