I would therefore like to reduce the 5.3 pace.
This is reasonable.
The current idea would be to skip every second release (unless security issues demand something else) both in release date as well as version number.
Skipping numbers will cause short & long term confusion. The current number synchronicity between 5.3 & 5.4 isn't particularly obvious or useful.
Doing this has an obvious issue, though: NEWS entries are currently only placed in the lowest branch. With the example from above and the current way the NEWS are handled 5.4.6 NEWS would be quite small and there would be no 5.3 NEWS to check for further things.
NEWS handling is broken anyway. Now would be a good time to resolve the issues with it. Chris -- christopher.jo...@oracle.com http://twitter.com/#!/ghrd -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
