Whats the status of 5.3? I have some changes that need to get into
a couple
of the xml based extensions in order for them to work with the
next libxml2

By no means am I an official representative, but I'd like to see them
NOT put into the 5.3 series. Security fixes I can understand, but we
WANT people to upgrade. If we keep developing 5.3 then what's the
point of 5.4 and 5.5?
Until we EOL 5.3 we should make sure it builds against current versions
of common things like libxml2. We also don't have APC ready for all the
new features in 5.4, so it isn't viable to upgrade to it yet for many
sites.
Not just APC ... It would be useful to document all the extensions that
are still only available in PHP5.3 ( or earlier )...
There seems to be a number of reasons ISP's are giving for not offering
PHP5.4 yet but getting a definitive answer seems impossible.
There is no such answer. When we find an extension that hasn't been
fixed for 5.4 yet, we fix it. Outside of APC which is on a completely
different level, modifying extensions to work with 5.4 is trivial.

Thanks. Committed then. Can someone do me a favor and make sure that the
commit went properly. Just got my env setup for first time for the repo
and to top it off git client hung on me during the push but I think it
made it ok
