My 2 cents:
Before you guys are making any changes in the maintenance process, I
think the end goal (dropping PHP4 support) can happen a lot smoother
with good communication. You can start today by stating really clear on
www.php.net that PHP4 support is going to be dropped in the future and
considered 'old',
also to Marco's point .. putting the downloads in the museum site will
be a really clear statement even though you don't actually have to drop
support for PHP4 till some time in the future..
Reading other people's comments it looks like getting people to switch
to PHP5, but also remain faithful and supporting to your community is
dear to people. The first step to achieve both is to change your
communication, not the actual maintenance process.

page on the php.net site and maybe put them onto the museum site?
