I seem to recall the discussion on this was completed a couple of years ago, but since PHP6 is still being pushed back people are forgetting what was agreed and are now trying to extend the life of PHP5 ;)


"Mark things that are will become dead in 6.0 E_DEPRECATED in 5.3"
"If they happen to be INI settings, disable by default in 5.3 before removing in 6.0"

Those were the conclusions. I don't see anything about that worthy of either Stas' or your comment... guess mine was just the shortest email in the thread?


magic_quotes was removed from php6 by Pierre in early 2006? The requests at that time were to mark it as deprecated in I think 5.1. The fact that there will have been another two major releases before we see a version where it IS removed is the underlying problem. I'm sure I am not alone in a preference to be testing an alpha release of PHP6 rather than yet another PHP5?
