PHP 5.3.0 RC 2 released
As others wrote, or as you can read on php.net or in my twitter feed we've released the second, long awaited, release candidate of PHP 5.3.0.
5.3 is rather big release including support for namespaces, closures, phar archives, internatioalization support via the new intl extension, improved SQLite support, mysqlnd as backend for the MySQL exensions, impressive performance improvements, ... and tons of other bigger and minor things.
Even though this server is running 5.3 already it's not suggested to be used in production evironments, yet but I'd really like to encourage
everybody to test it and give feedback! I'm also interested in positive
feedback, not only bug reports to support my good feeling about this release

PHP 5.3 gives a lot of strength to my faith in PHP!
It is an excellent release and I had a chance to do some very interesting stuff with it so far. Cannot await a stable release! Keep up the good work and thank you so much!

I feel 5.3 is the best thing that has happened to PHP in a long time.
If it would be possible to make it stable in the next 5 weeks or so, we can expect it to be a part of Ubuntu Karmic:

Which would be totally awesome

Good job! It works great and it's so fast... Some scripts need less than 20% of the time required in PHP 5.2.x...
Essa nova versão contém suporte aos namespaces, enclosures, internacionalização (através da nova extensão intl), manipulação de arquivos phar, suporte melhorado ao SQLite, mysqld e MySQL. Possui também várias velhorias de performance. ...
