left it in the sidebar for now, rather than adding it to the blurb on
that page.

Thanks for that useful crib sheet ...
Another useful reference to add would be the initial release date for each?
I could have sworn I was using PHP5 before 2004, but then it was in RC for a
while and my first production machines were on an RC. But more interesting is
that PHP4 was only around 4 years before that? One tends to forget what a short
life some of these things HAVE had. So PHP4 was killed off 4 years after it had
been superseded.

Hindsight is always a pain, but if PHP5.3 had been launched as PHP6, then we
would have had another 4/5 year cycle, and would now be discussing PHP7 4 years
later again ...

Just spotted a 'documentation problem' so should probably not be on this thread, but there is a gap in the links to windows binaries on the 'Unsupported Historical Releases' and in fact there does not seem to be a binary release available for PHP5.2.17? I can only find 5.2.16 in the windows archive ... AH there is a copy in the museum ... and windows support for PECL stopped in 2008.
I knew there was some reason 5.2.6 was still being used on windows systems ...
