PHP官方团队在 php.net上 发布了一则公告：
Today it is exactly three years ago since PHP 5 has been released. In those three years it has seen many improvements over PHP 4. PHP 5 is fast, stable & production-ready and as PHP 6 is on the way, PHP 4 will be discontinued.
The PHP development team hereby announces that support for PHP 4 will continue until the end of this year only. After 2007-12-31 there will be no more releases of PHP 4.4. We will continue to make critical security fixes available on a case-by-case basis until 2008-08-08. Please use the rest of this year to make your application suitable to run on PHP 5.
简译一下：
PHP5发布已经三年了，在这三年中PHP5有了很大改进，已经在很多方面超越了PHP4。PHP5快速、稳定并且已经做好了用于正式开发的准备。另外，PHP6的开发也在顺利进行。所以PHP4即将退出历史舞台。
PHP4的开发将维持到2007年12月31日，之后就不再有PHP4.4的新版本发布。我们将继续为PHP4提供安全方面的补丁，直到2008年8月8日。请利用今年的剩余时间来让您的项目更适合运行于PHP5环境。
