We need a better definition of BC break then. Is deprecating an existing feature BC break? Is adding a notice BC break? If something like making isset($string["foo"]) not return true anymore or fixing 64-bit numbers handling BC break? Each can break code that relied on old way of doing things. If we ban all of them for 5.x we'd need to have 6.0 much sooner, since otherwise we'd be stuck with a lot of old unfixable warts for 5 years. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Software Architect SugarCRM: http://www.sugarcrm.com/ (408)454-6900 ext. 227
