 > It's okay Denis.  The way I see it, as long as PHP4 is supported, nobody
 is going to pay attention to a notice that says PHP5 should be installed.

 You'd be surprised, actually. It's just a matter of writing the nag as it
 should be. I added one in my Version Checker plugin. It basically goes:
 you should tell your host they should be ashamed to leave your site on
 such an insecure platform -- with links to the php4 is no longer
 maintained announcement. And sure enough, users have been upgrading *very*
 fast.
