For many of us, the 5.2 branch HAS been the 'long term stability'

Any version beyond it's support period would be "long term stability"
(as in "pining for the fjords" stability) by definition. If somebody
want to backport patches and provide builds for it for any period he
likes - sure, but nobody volunteered so far, AFAIK.
This begs the question "Who decided that the only vesion of PHP available to a
potentially large section of the user base should be end of lifed?" When was it
voted on and was the problems of using a later version on some existing
platforms even considered in that discussion? This I think is the crux of all
the problems ... nobody actaully considers the end users at all?
