Hi, so PHP5 (currenlty HEAD) is feature freezed and therefore new code goes nowhere, only bugfixes go to php-src module since PHP_4_3 is also feature freezed. Is it ok, to branch PHP5_0 from HEAD so new developments to go to HEAD and bugfixes will go to PHP5_0 and HEAD. I know that this way we will have 3 branches but hopefully there will be nothing after 4.3.5 (which is iin RC phase now). So which is better? To have the branch made in the next week or when 4.3.5 is released? Or not branching after 5.0.0 is released which nobody knows when it will be done :)

I prefer waiting for RC1 to start a new-features branch. At least we then know that we're on the right track. There are still some minor changes going on (besides bug fixes) in tidy and SimpleXML. What change do you want to make. If it's minor I think we can make an exception. Andi
