If increasing the requirement to 4.4 will help the development of PEAR
- I think it makes sense to move forward. But I think we should
increase it for more than just - "those old versions are rusty" - if
you get my meaning.
Don't get me wrong, I'm 100% for this, but I think we need to document
the specifics of why old versions would be no longer supported.
