Hi all! I've add one more encoding to the mbstring and sent diff files to mbstring maintainer. But he have add my changes only to the 5.1 version. Is it possible to add my changes into 4.x version's release?

No, we will not add new features to PHP 4.x. regards, Derick

Actually, that's a bundled libmbfl library update as for instance in 4.3.11 version (iso-8859-16 was added).

That's definitely something we don't want to do in a stable bug-fix branch only. regards, Derick

4.4 version is a stable bug-fix branch too?

Yes, PHP_4_4 is a bugfix-only branch, too.

Yes, it's just named to 4.4 because a backward incompatible change in PHP was put in to get rid of the reference related bugs. Derick

I thought it was renamed so Ilia could hand the release coordinator job off to you ;) Regards, Jason http://blog.casey-sweat.us/
