I don't see anything about 5.2.x features not being available as you suggest. But thanks for the reply. -----Original Message----- From: Bob McConnell [mailto:rvm@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, November 20, 2009 10:50 AM To: David Stoltz; php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: Upgrading PHP versions Assumption 2 is invalid.
