<h3>PHP 4 Release Candidate 2</h3>
|
|
|
|
May 10, 2000. The PHP Group is proud to announce the release of the <a
|
|
href="version4/">second release candidate of the upcoming PHP 4.0</a>.
|
|
Highlights of this release include
|
|
support for new web servers (Zeus, Netscape Enterprise, Apache Win32 module),
|
|
improved portability of the Unix build framework and tons of bug fixes.
|
|
We expect this to be the final release candidate before PHP 4.0.
|
|
|
|
<h3>PHP 3.0.16 released</h3>
|
|
April 05, 2000. PHP 3.0.16 was released. This is mostly a bug fix release which
|
|
adds support for gd-1.8, ucd-snmp 4.1, and high-resolution timers on OS/2.
|
|
OpenBSD support has been improved considerably. The source package and
|
|
Win32 binaries are available from the PHP homepage. The
|
|
<a href="ChangeLog.php3">ChangeLog</a> contains a
|
|
full list of changes.

<h3>PHP 4 Release Candidate 1</h3>
|
|
The real thing is getting closer and closer. After a very successful Beta 4
|
|
release that was extremely stable, <a href="version4/">PHP 4.0</a> shifts gears from the beta cycle into
|
|
<a href="version4/downloads.php">release-quality RC1.</a>
|
|
If all goes well and no outstanding bugs are found in the RC, the final
|
|
version of PHP will be released sometime.

<h3>What is PHP?</h3>
|
|
<P>
|
|
PHP is a server-side, cross-platform, HTML embedded scripting language.
|
|
If you are completely new to PHP and want to get some idea of how it works,
|
|
have a look at the <a href="tut.php3">Introductory Tutorial</a>. Once you get
|
|
beyond that have a look at the example archive sites and some of the other
|
|
resources available in the <a href="links.php3">Links</a> section.
|
|
</P>
|
|
|
|
<h3>So, how much does it cost?</h3>
|
|
<P>
|
|
This may sound a little foreign to all you folks coming from a non-Unix
|
|
background, but PHP doesn't cost anything. You can use it for commercial
|
|
and/or non-commercial use all you want. You can give it to your friends,
|
|
print it out and hang it on your wall or eat it for lunch. Welcome to
|
|
the world of <a href="http://www.opensource.org">Open Source</a> software!
|
|
Smile, be happy, the world is good. For the full legalese, see the
|
|
official <a href="license.html">license</a>.
|
|
</P>

<h3>Year 2000 Compliance</h3>
|
|
Just like your C compiler or your favourite text editor, PHP is just about as
|
|
year 2000 compliant as your pencil. If you're still worried (perhaps all
|
|
pencils are built to break on December 31st 1999?) -
|
|
<a href="y2k.php3">read this</a>.
