PHP 4 is Dead!! Long live PHP 5
5Mar2008 Filed under: PHP Author: SachinPHP Community announced that all active development work of PHP4 will stop by year end. PHP 5 will be the default supported version. It’s great news with great challenges. While we love PHP 5 for its extraordinary features and call it a modern day language, the truth is that less than 1% hosts provides PHP5 hosting today. I wonder what will happen to those thousands of applications, millions of lines of codes, products that are running on PHP 4. It will be some task to convert the existing applications to PHP 5 compliant.
Community has launched a campaign “Go PHP 5” (http://www.gophp5.org). Applications which are no longer supporting PHP 4 are participating in this campaign. It is a good beginning! This should have started 1 year back giving web hosts, PHP developers to start migrating. Please start listing your applications on gophp5.org and support the transition process.
I hope that PHP 6 is being developed by being completely backward compliant unlike relationships of PHP 4 and PHP 5.
