And I have a pretty bad bug I'm still trying to repro (just got access to a box with the bug) that needs to get into a 4.3.1.As a matter of fact I think it would be good idea to go for 4.3.1 in February because number of bugfixes in PHP_4_3 branch is already significant and since no major new features have been added there the QA process shouldn't take that long either.
There were some, for example Sascha's addition. This alone would qualify a full QA, and not a short and fast one. Our general idea was to NOT add new code to release branches, but at the moment developers are still doing this because *they* need a new function and dont want to wait for 5.0.0. I can understand that they dont want to wait for PHP 5, but what I dont understand is that they think less about the general stability and QA processes for the PHP 4.3.x series.And thus the need to have a pure 4_3 tree that 4_3_1 can be branched from. Those people who need to add new features can do so on 4_3_head, but they might not ever make it into an official 4.x release depending on QA and the time cycle for 5.
