PHP5 release?

Post by Dummkopf »

Hi,

Hi,

I just finished to plan my own Massivs-Multiplayer-Roleplay/Strategy-Game, which also includes writing the UML-Diagrams and so on.

But then I´ve heart that PHP5 will allow me to use all the practical OO-functionality I already learned to appreaciate when I coded in Java.

Now I´ve got two questions:

1) Should I start to program my project with the OO-support PHP4 offers me? Or should I code it the way PHP5 allows me to do, though I won´t be able to test my scripts? Or should I wait until PHP5 is released in order to start the project then?
2) WHEN will PHP5 be released? I don´t need an exact date, but will it be this summer, this automn or summer 2005 ??

I´d be thankful for any answers, because I neither want to wait to start, nor to program the whole project twice ...

[this time it is propably the right forum ... :)]
