I am not advocating prolonging the use of PHP4.
However, it is not a switch that can be flipped without carefully  
planning on consequences.
For me, it is not only the migration of roundcube, but all of the PHP  
code we host, some of which has not been touched in years.

Here, I am in the middle of many migrations, of which PHP4 to PHP5 is  
one.
I simply need some breathing room for a few weeks to be able to  
properly test and manage our migration.
I do not want to pull in a svn update that is not compatible with my  
_current_ environment, even though I am working to migrate that  
environment to PHP5.

You may chid me for waiting so long, yes.
However I have not been able to properly convince those that pay me  
how important this migration is.
I keep getting TODO items added to my list _above_ the PHP version  
migration.

We still have machines running Windows NT 3.5.1 on Alpha, if you want  
to talk about unsupported ;)


I think it would be a good idea in the future to make a svn commit  
specifically labeled with the version number of a release. It was  
great to see the original post in this thread so that the demarcation  
line between PHP4 and PHP5 is clear. And it was clear on the SVN log.  
Not so much with the 0.1.1 release.
