Re: Re: 5.3 final release

Hi, I have a request to include our latest sapi/litespeed V6.6 to the EOL PHP 5.3 release. I thought it was EOL already. We had some difficult to commit our LiteSpeed SAPI code into PHP source repository before, so it is lagging behind our office release. The sapi/litespeed code in 5.3.28 is the V5.5 release, which is very old. We have a script to patch LiteSpeed SAPI to latest version when user build PHP binary for production use. However, we start to push for rpm packages, some vendors only take the official PHP release. It could be a big problem for PHP 5.3 if only the official code is used. PHP 5.4/5.5/5.6 branch has been updated to the latest, and will be kept up2date from now on. Fortunately, there are one more release for 5.3, I sent in a pull request for the PHP-5.3 branch on Github which updates sapi/litespeed code to the latest v6.6, it is the version has used in production for long time. https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/739 Hopefully, it is not too late. :-) Thanks, George Wang On 7/22/2014 2:53 PM, Stas Malyshev wrote:

Hi!

According to PHP 5.3 EOL RFC, we've now a month past official EOL date, but we've planned to make one final release incorporating most important fixes from upper branches since the last 5.3 release. To help with that, I've created a pull here: https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/730

Did not get any response for that - I guess everybody's too busy discussing the number of the next PHP version :) But I think we still need to release the final 5.3. So I plan to proceed this way: - Release the RC next week - Release the final 5.3 version on August 14th. Any objections to this plan? If anybody has any way to reach Johannes and see if he wants to do it himself later or is ok with the plan above, that'd be great.
