These have been our recommendations since 1.0, I believe. But we decided for this release that having a separate required and recommended release is confusing and potentially send out the wrong message that running in a less secure/stable/performant environment is consistent with the best practices we try to promote in the ZF community. What I didn't realize was that there are so many important and current environments that use < 5.2.3 versions of PHP. As Matthew mentioned, this is very concerning. But as for the ZF release notes, I believe we can revert to the old requirements until we can encourage all distros to upgrade to the best versions of PHP available. I will make this change in the 1.6RC1 release notes.

Are there any known components of the 1.6 that will really require 5.2.3 (i.e does not work)? I use RedHat Enterprise/Centos and they are all based on 5.1.6 so I'd like to know if I can adopt the new ZF with some restrictions or stick the 1.5.x.
