I will concede that perhaps it could've been better-worded on my part, as well, to say that it is *planned* for that to be PHP 6, not that it definitely will. However, keep in mind that the code itself is not only built for self-detection of major version equaling or exceeding 6 (which certainly suggests the intent), but also notes throughout (such as the SVN rules I pointed out) also state, quite plainly, that the trunk *is* for PHP 6.0 development, not for development of what "may become" PHP 6. I'm well aware of all of the discussions and arguments, but the simple truth is that, if we want to work toward reducing confusion, it may be worthwhile to start with the code itself (don't laugh.... I know). -- </Daniel P. Brown> daniel.brown@parasane.net || danbrown@php.net http://www.parasane.net/ || http://www.pilotpig.net/
