There are some major changes and additions introduced in 5.3.
However, some may consider it a wise idea to wait until at least 5.3.1
before putting it into production. The public final release of PHP
5.3.0 is still a few days off, so starting with 5.2 and then
introducing the 5.3 branch during the course could not only be a great
idea for the OP, but also an exciting evolution during the class,
showing also in real-time how open source projects advance.
