That's precisely why > Lorenzo doesn't want to do this. Yes, I was talking about breaking the rules ;) but as Lorenzo said this is not a BC-break, because current behaviour was documented and other incompatibilities are not known. >> p.s. not all users are using PEAR Installer. > > If they don't use PEAR installer *and* don't check release notes > manually I feel very little sympathy for them. Many projects are using MDB2 package, many are including MDB2 sources. Users can use bundled or system packages. I just don't want to require 5.3 on those, e.g. Roundcube webmail. Forget about PHP4, but 5.3 is too "restrictive" for now, 5.2 would be ok. -- Aleksander 'A.L.E.C' Machniak http://alec.pl gg:2275252 LAN Management System Developer http://lms.org.pl Roundcube Webmail Developer http://roundcube.net
