<h1>PHP 5 Release Candidate 2 Released!</h1>
<p>
 <span class="newsdate">[25-Apr-2004]</span>
 The <a href="/downloads.php#v5">second Release Candidate of PHP 5</a> is now
 available! This mostly bug fix release improves PHP 5's stability and irons out
 some of the remaining issues before PHP 5 can be deemed release quality. Note
 that it is still <i>not</i> recommended for mission-critical use but people are
 encouraged to start playing with it and report any problems.
</p>

<p>Key changes since Release Candidate 1 include:</p>

<ul>
 <li>
  The Zend Engine I compatibility mode (zend.ze1_compatibility_mode) has been
  re-implemented to more accurately support PHP 4's object auto-clone behavior.
 </li>
 <li>
  All object-oriented extensions except for MySQLi have moved to studlyCaps.
  This includes SQLite, SOAP, Reflection API, Ming and others.
 </li>
 <li>
  Implementing an interfaces and/or abstract method with the wrong prototype is
  now a fatal error. For backwards compatibility, re-implementing regular methods
  with the wrong prototype will only result in an E_STRICT warning.
 </li>
 <li>
  Features as described in the Release Candidate 1
  <a href="/index.php#5.0.0RC1">release announcement</a>

 <li>And lots more...</li>
