At this point, the last two weeks of deliberations on this RFC have pushed its 
release back quite a long ways.  I don't know when 5.5 is due out but if it's 
within the next 6 months (and I'm the only one working on the code) then it 
will probably not be happening.  Due to the dramatic changes that have been 
talked about, I may just scrap the fork and start over, since I've learned a 
lot about php-core since starting this a year ago.
