PHP Version Requirements - October 2010
Posted: Mon Oct 25, 2010 10:14 am
Hello All,
I tried searching for this topic as I figured it would have been asked before. I could not find it and given that it is a very time sensitive question I am going to ask it. I apologize if I missed another post on it.
I am starting the beginning of a very long large project which hopefully a lot of developers will like and use. Given that I was wondering what version of PHP I should be developing in. There are some great new features in PHP 5.3 but I don't want people suck with PHP 5.2 left out in the cold. My project will not be done for at least a year... should I start with PHP 5.2 for now and see if 5.3 has supplanted it by then or should I go with 5.3 figuring that by the time it is done it will be the standard?
Would look forward to any input
