I took a long hard look at the Switching to PHP 5 article and I have some
concerns and advice. I'm making my points public so they will help others
following this mailing list and help us improve the documentation of
WordPress.


Sure I can look at this again.

I agree with the additional questions that need to be answered by the page, so will add them in.

The reason why the page gives some background is to serve to address the "why bother?" question. I think it's wise to leave it there. Most people probably get the why but I suspect there are some that don't.

The web hosting switch list is to address the "how?" question.

Both of these were considered points that should be on the page in the dev chat, particularly so the "how do I?" list. I think that to not even attempt to guide people in how to make the switch would lose some of the strength of the page.

I take your point though that the pages need to be timeless - however, the switch to PHP5 will eventually happen to all, so in a way this page is less important in that regard than others, which might have a longer life span. I did make the point in the dev chat that I could only add web switch information for a couple of hosts, and it was agreed that this would be something of an organic beast.

So yes, I'll redraft this out with your specific points in mind and see if we can come up with something more meaty.
