The question is interesting. I do another question: Will PHP5 support PHP4 backward compatibility forever? Ok I'm rediculous, forever not, but, until 5.3 or 6? I really don't know how CI thinks about evolution, but I'm very curious why don't use the new features that provide good evolution? "It's Works" don't seem to me one good reason to not do evolution. Mainly when some concepts are deprecated. I'm don't talking that CI is not good or enough, just, I offer IMHO some interesting questions.
