No offense, I can't resist...
<p>
Today has been exactly three years since PHP 5 was released. In
those three years it has seen many improvements over PHP 4. PHP 5 is
fast, stable & production-ready and as PHP 6 is on the way, PHP 4
will soon be discontinued.
</p>
<p>
As such, the PHP development team announces that support for PHP 4 will
continue only until the end of this year. After 2007-12-31 there will
be no further releases of PHP 4.4. Except in cases of security issues
that may arise.
Security-only releases will also terminate on 2008-08-08.
We strongly recommend upgrading your applications to PHP 5.
