So the same people who didn't care to upgrade for 1,5 months before suddenly *rushed* to upgrade now. And this has *nothing* to do with change in package state, yes?
This rush is even less believable as Changelog clearly states that the code did not change since 1.0.0beta1. ;]
I don't see the problem: a) PHP 5 only packages are/will all be very new (aka released now or so) therefore they will must likely not hit a stable release before PHP 5 does; b) I would personally prefer to have less users then a wider audience for a new package, so I would stay alpha or beta a looooong time. Eventually every user can download beta/alpha packages by changing his preferred status, true not a lot are doing it but that's the way it is supposed to be. Non stable packages are not really invisible... Cheers David Costa
