[thelist] migrating to php4

While I can understand your providers' reticense (sp?) to upgrade until 
they are certain of the product's stability, I would like to point out that 
I have been using PHP4 (in Beta form of course) since December last year to 
run http://wapwarp.com search engine. Now I can't lay claim to this being 
especially complex as far as sites go, but I've not had any trouble with 
PHP's stability as well. I've also been using it on my development machine 
at home.

Does your host have multiple servers? You could always see if they are 
willing to upgrade on one server for those who want to make the switch.
