I'd suggest something close to what Rasmus suggested: a) We make a clear statement on PHP.net that at the end of the year we plan to discontinue bug fixes for PHP 4 except for security fixes. b) We will discontinue supporting PHP 4 on 8/8/8 (because it sounds good and gives people about a year).

The attached patch mentions the above. As you can see, the idea is to release this on the 13th, 3 years after php 5 was released for this first time.

I also suggest to move PHP 4 downloads to the museum. I suggest though to make a clear visible link from php.net/downloads.php to the museum and make a clear statement that PHP 4 has moved (I am sure there are still many who look for it for application compatibiity reasons).

I think this is a bit premature - I suggest doing this at the end of the year as the museum does not have MD5 sums and the like. I did add a couple of lines in the patch for phpweb to point out this upcoming issue though on both the downloads and releases pages.

Please have a look at the attached patch and feel free to make any suggestions towards making the text better.

regards, Derick
