R.I.P. PHP 4.x (2000-2008)
The PHP development team has sentenced PHP 4.x to death. On December 31st, 2007, there will be no more releases of PHP 4.4. On August, 8th, 2008, they will discontinue even critical security updates.
I wonder if the drupal community had anything to do with instigating this? I'm tempted to think so...
Praise Allah! PHP lives!
