:-D Not a bad idea but in the end I think it's more fruitful to just
migrate what can be migrated and rewrite the rest. I also work work for
a fairly[tm] large ISP (some 3.2M sites) and pretty much everybody who
deals with security is longing for the day the switch to PHP5 will
finally be complete. Seeing the same old stupid exploits due to the same
old stupid PHP4 mistakes a few dozen times a day is just getting boring.
My opinion of PHP as a whole is not exactly high but version 5 is the
least bad thing that ever happened to it.
cheers,
Matthias
