given that the current stable ubuntu, the coming stable debian and redhat, and stable just about everyting-else in linux land will/does ship php 5.3, maybe a patch set will develop? the origins of this policy can be seen here, where matt mullenweg spells out why wordpress will still run with php4 code: http://ma.tt/2007/07/on-php/ that was nearly 3 years ago, but i guess it still holds. can i interest you in a drupal 7 blog? works like a charm on php 5.3 ;-) cheers justin -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
