PHP 4: So long, and thanks for all the fish
PHP 4 is no more, with the last PHP 4.4.8 release the end as come. In the past eight years PHP 4 provided people a web-focussed language, solving many web-related problems. Since a few years a much improved version has slowly been taking over market share from PHP 4 - now at more than 25%. We, the PHP core developers, want to put our development power on the future technologies. Because of this, we will no longer support PHP 4 with the exception of possible releases addressing security issues until 2008-08-08.
PHP 5, especially PHP 5.2 and later, offers a much more stable, faster, and feature-rich web application development environment. We would therefore recommend to upgrade as soon as possible, especially now PHP 4 support does no longer exist.
Now all that's left is a homage to PHP 4:
So long and thanks for all the fish So sad that it should come to this The future belongs to those who dare.

Finally! ;-)
Perhaps it'll finally clue in people that it is time to upgrade to PHP 5 and adoption rates will start climbing at more then 1-2% per month.
Ilia, about "Finally" when can we expect to have the finally keyword available in php ? ;-)
It's about time!
(I accidentally read 'PHP' instead of 'PHP4' in your title in my feedreader and thought you were leaving the community. Luckily that was just me. :))
Yippieh! Finally! dance
All I can say is it's about time! No body should be using PHP 4 these days. It's taken hosts long enough to switch for in fear of breaking lots of client applications.

Red Knots in Flight
Just some of the 25,000 birds in the flock(s). But they were straight overhead showing their bellies, and the different stages of winter plumage.

A Jack Snipe Close Up
I had a lovely day out at the Rainham Marshes yesterday. One hide I stumbled into was full of excitement, and it turned out this Jack Snipe was bobbing up and down right under the hide while foraging.
After a while, a crow spoiled the view and chased it off.
