Not sure if the date is significant, but just received notification that 1&1
will drop support for PHP4 and PHP5.2 from April 1, 2013 - yes PHP4 is still
available as their default!
The move is to PHP5.4, but the interesting thing is that they are calling it
PHP6 simply to isolate it from PHP5.2

I keep being told that 'It's just a number', but this is an example of why
rolling yet another significantly different version of PHP5 causes problems in
user land. The frameworks are jumping to the next major release to support 5.4
over 5.2 and providers like 1&1 need an easy way to manage what they PROVIDE to
users.
