It may be worth noting the way MySQL AB has been rolling out MySQL. They released 4.0.0 as a restructured release, did bug fixes and small changes up through 4.0.19, and are approaching the release of 4.1 with significant new features. It sounds like the same might apply here. ~Jason At 5/18/

I agree with everything Sara says. So we delay it for a few months, what's the big deal there? There are several features that we want to insert to PHP 5 but are not because of the feature freeze (realpath cache, TSRM updates, etc.). There'll be plenty of reasons to go for 5.1 pretty much immedi

This is why I allowed important features in despite the feature freeze. However, it doesn't mean that unimportant stuff should go in as much as people want because otherwise we can't make a good release. I don't think open-source is about adding every single feature at any single point of time.

Hey, Definitely not a year. There are some features I'd like to work on right after 5.0 but which I haven't done because of the feature freeze and the possibility of affecting stability. I think if we open a 5.1 branch close after releasing 5.0 we can probably release something within three mont
