At this point, the last two weeks of deliberations on this RFC have pushed its release back quite a
long ways. I don't know when 5.5 is due out but if it's within the next 6 months (and
I'm the only one working on the code) then it will probably not be happening. Due to the
dramatic changes that have been talked about, I may just scrap the fork and start over, since
I've learned a lot about php-core since starting this a year ago.
