Are there any plans to upgrade PHP to version 5? I would like to register my interest in this matter...

Is there any chance of an upgrade to the latest PHP 4 version (PHP 4.4.7) so as to close of any old security and bug issues that may exist in PHP 4.3.7?
Or perhaps get a new server, install all the up to date software on it, and transfer customer web sites who request it, to work as a minimal test bed? I'd be happy to put my site on such a test.
As such I am now looking into the idea of doing a straight upgrade to PHP5 as from what I've been reading over the weekend it shouldn't cause any issues. The only problems I've come across are people who had created functions with the same names as new PHP functions in 5. Has anyone on here had or heard of any other issues with upgrading?

I couldn't agree more!
It's not difficult to do. There are lots of hosting services that have this facility. Here are some links, for the technical people at Freeola to look into:
This one is from Gentoo
Configure Apache to work with PHP4 and PHP5
Here are some various blog howtos:
Running PHP 4 and PHP 5 Concurrently
Running Apache2 With PHP5 And PHP4 At The Same Time
Running PHP4 and PHP5 together
I could go on and on and on with these links.
Enough excuses guys.
If we do ever want to change to a new version we will announce it first.
