> PHP 5.3.0 Release Announcement

>> The PHP development team is proud to announce the immediate release of PHP
>> 5.3.0. This release is a major improvement in the 5.X series, which includes
>> a large number of new features and bug fixes.

>> The key features of PHP 5.3.0 include:

>>     * Support for namespaces
>>     * Late static binding
>>     * Lambda Functions and Closures
>>     * Syntax additions: NOWDOC, ternary short cut "?:" and jump label
>> (limited goto), __callStatic()
>>     * Under the hood performance improvements
>>     * Optional garbage collection for cyclic references
>>     * Optional mysqlnd PHP native replacement for libmysql
>>     * Improved Windows support including VC9 and experimental X64 binaries
>> as well as portability to other supported platforms
>>     * More consistent float rounding
>>     * Deprecation notices are now handled via E_DEPRECATED (part of E_ALL)
>> instead of the E_STRICT error level
>>     * Several enhancements to enable more flexiblity in php.ini (and ini
>> parsing in general)
>>     * New bundled extensions: ext/phar, ext/intl, ext/fileinfo,
>> ext/sqlite3, ext/enchant
>>     * Over 140 bug fixes and improvements to PHP, in particular to:
>> ext/openssl, ext/spl and ext/date

>> This release also drops several extensions and unifies the usage of
>> internal APIs. Users should be aware of the following known backwards
>> compatibility breaks:

>>     * Parameter parsing API unification will cause some functions to
>> behave more or less strict when it comes to type juggling
>>     * Removed the following extensions: ext/mhash (see ext/hash),
>> ext/msql, ext/pspell (see ext/enchant), ext/sybase (see ext/sybase_ct)
>>     * Moved the following extensions to PECL: ext/ming, ext/fbsql,
>> ext/ncurses, ext/fdf
>>     * Removed zend.ze1_compatibility_mode

>> For users upgrading from PHP 5.2 there is a migration guide available
>> here, detailing the changes between those releases and PHP 5.3.0.

>> For a full list of changes in PHP 5.3.0, see the ChangeLog.
