As I am sure you've all noticed (I hope ;-) ) PHP 5.2.4 was released.
After 4 point releases in the 5.2 branch, I think it is sufficiently
stable that a process on PHP 5.3 can begin. What I would like to do
in the next week is assemble everyone's wishlist for 5.3 and make a
TODO that I will then aggregate and post on the list by next Friday.
Hopefully, we then can vote on all of the other ideas within a week
and a formal TODO for 5.3 can be assembled at this time. Hopefully
this process will allow us to quickly get to writing code rather then
flaming each other on the list :-).
Overall my goal is to have 5.3 branched within 2 weeks and released
by February 2008 with RCs starting early '08.
So please, if you have idea for 5.3 please send them over to me
directly, not the list and I will start building 5.3 TODO v0.1
