I pretty much echo what Shaun says. My main server will be php4 for a
while yet, but I'm not waiting til next August to migrate to php 5.
It will be gradual this winter. I have a lot more 0.10.x sites to
contend with (mostly heavily customized) and even a few 0.8.x sites.
I may keep a php4 server up for a little while longer, for a few
clients who refuse to upgrade and realize they will be moved to an
unsupported obsolete server.
