Although the name PHP 5.5 was mentioned before, I do think we should call it PHP 6.0. As the Unicode support is quite a drastic change. Going with PHP 6.0 also allows us to be a little less strict with breaking BC in the cases where that might be useful for the Unicode support. I took the freedom to commit this change to CVS, as I needed already different version numbers for the different versions of PHP that I install locally. If discussion results that we need to rename it to something else, that's ofcourse perfectly fine. regards, Derick -- Derick Rethans http://derickrethans.nl | http://ez.no | http://xdebug.org
