Having the With such figures you have to keep in mind that a) it does also count systems not really maintained and b) only systems with expose_php on which are available on the internet, not intranet hosts. I have statistics showing me that 59.2% of the people who install a recent version of phpMyFAQ, which is some random average, free available, PHP application, do this on PHP 5. (here you have too keep in mind that this includes people who install it, maybe for testing, on a local windows box and all... ah and it only counts data from people who agree sending it). Once I have the time, I'll sit down and make some deeper analysis of the data I have. The key point is: Statistics can show quite different numbers, so don't overrate them. johannes
I agree about the statistics. I posted this just because Oliver asked... My thought about php4->php6 migration was that when php6 is out to encourage (or more correctly said almost enforce - with the proper announcement for EOL on the php.net) the php4 users to upgrade directly to php6. This way the php6 adoption could be much faster than php5 one. It will be just obvious for everybody still using php4 that he has to upgrade - then why to upgrade to php5 while he can upgrade to php6? So please give your opinions on this. Vesselin Kenashkov
