The PHP development team has just released the last release of PHP 4. It has gone over 4 years since the release of PHP 5 and the adoption of PHP 5 vs. PHP 4 looks quite positive with the availability of PHP 5.1 and 5.2.
This is an important milestone for everyone that rely on PHP in their business. As a web professional using PHP I assume you already have been using PHP 5 for some time. But if you for some reason have any web applications running on PHP 4 you should definitly consider upgrading.
