Subject: php 4.4 BC break
From: chuck@horde.org (Chuck Hagenbuch)

Relax, I'm not debating the decision. Just:

PLEASE can someone put a big fat warning on the php 4.4 announcement on 
www.php.net that it breaks existing code?

I already have people upgrading to it and wondering why they get tons 
of warnings now. We're fixing them as quick as we can, but honestly, 
given that PHP never gave us a notice about them before, there are 
going to be a lot, and a lot in old releases too. It'd be helpful if on 
the php side people were at least given a chance not to shoot 
themselves in the foot.
