just so you know, I didn't forget to upload the altered files.. I never finished modifying them for full PHP5 across the board.. so I'm going through and fixing it all up.

Easy. Run two simultaneous versions ;) You don't need to make any painful changes to tun a PHP5 applicatio/library into something compatible with PHP4... providing you're not using any reflection or spl etc. Chainging the syntax of a PHP5 class to a PHP4 one in my case takes all of two minutes then a quick test while I package it up...

None of that. Just plain ole' annoying references. I try to use a few of them as possible, but it's always fun downgrading to PHP 4 and seeing where I need to inject the ampersand.

Since the package is currently undergoing active development, I'd like to have only one branch. After the first stable release, then I'll jump straight to v2, which will drop PHP 4 support.
