Status update for phpMyFAQ 2.0.10 / 2.5.0-alpha2

Friday, November 14th, 2008

We fixed a lot of bugs the last weeks and phpMyFAQ 2.0.10 will be out the next two weeks. phpMyFAQ 2.5.0-alpha2 is also under development and we fixed a lot of PHP 5 related issues. The second alpha release is planned for Q12009. Because of the delay of the final release of phpMyFAQ 2.5 we’ll support phpMyFAQ 2.0 with PHP 4 also in 2009. Our installer will show a warning with the release of phpMyFAQ 2.0.10, if you still use PHP 4.

Today I dropped the support for MySQL 4.0 and MaxDB in phpMyFAQ 2.5. The reasons are simple. MySQL 4.0 is out of extended support by SUN Microssystems and no one used the Max DB support in phpMyFAQ…
