Where would you want to start UPGRADING from?

The main problem I faced with the 5.1.0 version was not knowing how far back to go... or what to count 'in'. E.g. something that was only in CVS for a few weeks and no releases - should that be included?

Needs some thought for 6.0....

Pierre and all,

A while ago I suggested to add an UPGRADING file for the PHP 6 upgrade, where we'd document every time we break BC and how to solve that. For example, with nuking register_globals we could write what we broke, and if really needed, what 1-2 liners they can write to get the same behavior back (e.g. extract()).

Ilia and I owe the safe_mode docs. If anyone who broke something can take care of this that'll be great. The earlier we start the easier the PHP 6 upgrade will be and the less info we'll forget.
