I guess the release of PHP 5.0.6 isn't far away.

Simple question: Will 5.0.6 give us back BC for the "pass-by-ref-fix" of
5.0.5, something like throwing a warning (was discussed here).

If not we have the problem that now PHP 5.0.4 is unsecure and the new
versions won't work without extremly testing of some bigger applications.

Thank you and best regrards.

I think a lot of people are waiting for this question to be answered, I know 
I am.
How will this be announced to the public, because I don't think the 
internals mailinglist is the best place to spread the word, right?

Kees
