Yeah well 5.0 is kinda straight forward exclusion, it's a first branch of a new major release and should be avoided when this old - a lot of issues that cause maintainers a lot of heartache would be my simplest answer. for 4.3 -> 4.4 I have no simple answer since it's one of those just because, PEAR runs fine on 4.3 but not actively tested on it but we do need to nudge users forward and well memory corruption issues ... 4.4 fixed that ;) hehe Regards Helgi
