To PHP5 or not to PHP5?

Python

My host has posted a poll on their forums asking whether or not they should upgrade their PHP to PHP5 from PHP4.

What do you think? The main problem lies with possible compatibility problems which would arise.

You could either let me know here or go ahead and vote for yourself(even better if your a client) at http://www.vivehosting.com/forums/index.php?a=topic&t=20

Thanks

Ya I got the same IM from vive.
I'm undecided on what to vote.

imho, it's better to stick with php 4 if your website is based on scripts like wordpress, mambo, phpbb - better perform an upgrade to the latest version before switching to php 5...

Using PHP5 right now would break a whole truck load of premade scripts. Any host should be staying away from PHP5 for a while.
