So the problem really moves onto the CMS providers, do they support new php versions and drop customers in shared hosting, do they delay supporting the new php versions, or do they reimplement mysql_* in php? We are talking about ~1.5 years until ext/mysql is really removed. Don't you think all big project will be able to remove it during that timerange? And no big hosting provider will roll out that new version on day 1, so you will not see many hosters running PHP 5.6 (where ext/mysql is removed) in the next 2 years. Enough time to get rid of the old mysql_* things.

Deprecated warnings do not hurt anybody, in production environments they are not visible, so where is the problem? Nothing will break with 5.5 Michael
