Symfony 1.0: supported until January 2010.
Symfony 1.1: supported juntil January 2009.
Symfony 1.2: requires PHP 5.2.

http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=16915

Red Hat Linux 5 and CentOS 5: PHP 5.1.x. PHP 5.2.x is available only
from the "testing" repository in CentOS. It is not available in RHEL,
I believe.

Red Hat Linux 6: expected first quarter 2010 at the earliest.

Looks like it could be difficult to use a supported, newer-than-1.0
version of Symfony on one of the most widely used server distributions
until at least first quarter 2010.

One can of course use a "testing" distribution or take on the project
of building PHP 5.2.x from source promptly each time a new subversion
comes out (to maintain the sort of security one has with 'yum
update'), but it's tough to sell an IT department on either of those
things.

How serious is Symfony 1.2's dependency on PHP 5.2? Which PHP 5.2
features are considered indispensable for Symfony 1.2?

I thought it might be a requirement of Propel 1.3 but was surprised to
find no reference to a requirement for anything other than PHP 5 on
the Propel site.
