Hi, Actually, this is not a BC break for one simple reason: the pear installer will not allow you to upgrade to a package version that does not work in your php version. Also, because Services_Technorati never reached 1.0.0 or stable, I don't see this as a huge deal. However, you should be prepared, James, should there be any security-related bugs, to release 0.6.7 beta with PHP4 support and the fix. Hopefully this will never need to happen, but please don't plan for a perfect future, that rarely makes life easier should anything go wrong :). Thanks, Greg
