Comment (by chris@…):
@nacin had a [https://make.wordpress.org/meta/2015/03/01/major-update-to-
our-version-stats-for-php-mysql-and-wordpress/ post about a year ago]
(scroll down to the '''Updated March 2''' headline) where he partially
answered the old PHP/old WP percentage question.
'''Is there anyway we can see PHP/MySQL versions broken down by what
WordPress version they are running on?'''
We’re still working on ensuring the numbers are stable. They’re pretty
predictable: older WP versions have more people on older PHP and MySQL
versions. Newer WP versions have less.
PHP 5.2 is at about 16% for all installs right now. It’s at about 10%
for installs running WordPress 4.1, but because 4.1 is such a large part
of the pie (36%), it’s the WP version with the most PHP 5.2 installs.
I'd be curious to know if there's been an update on this.
