PHP 4 - R.I.P.

[mbneto]

Davis,

If you are talking about centos you have two things to consider:
a) RHES/Centos 5 already comes with php 5.
b) RHES/Centos 4 does not and will not have due to the way things are
planned.   Since PHP5 has some issues with backward compatibility they will
not replace the package.
