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
