It might be a good idea to keep the latest build of php4/5, that can run
on these systems, arround for a while so the users can download them.

Hi all,
In the spirit of dumping Win95 support in PHP 5, I'd like to officialy
dump
Windows 98&ME support from this point onwards. We are sticking to old
Windows APIs because of this support which doesn't make much sense
considering that Microsoft has stopped supporting those platforms six
months
ago (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/support/endofsupport.mspx).
So I see no reason for us to support Micorsoft customers better than
they do
:) Those who are stuck on those versions should just stick to the
versions
up to PHP 5.2.0. They are not getting Windows updates, so why should
they
get PHP updates?Unless anyone disagrees with this, we'll go ahead with this.

Yep, they are available at http://museum.php.net/
We might want to put a more prominent link on
http://www.php.net/downloads.php to that page w/ an explanation.
