Hi all, this is probably crying for flames but I need to ask anyway: I have a customer who is running a very large project on PHP4. Because of subtle object usage details in programming, a port to PHP5 would be pretty identical to a complete rewrite (about 6-8 man-months estimated) and is not financially feasible because of short budgets (like everywhere). However, a server upgrade is on the list (they still run sarge) and I need to know if anyone knows about a repository or something where anyone hosts some sort of more-or-less-maintained backport repository for ANY debian or deb-based Linux-Distribution that still gets security updates! (they are on sarge, currently) Please dont tell me that they wont get around a PHP upgrade sooner or later because I know and I told them and they dont want it now. All I want to do is make the best out of the situation and to achieve that I need to move away from sarge, to get at least an OS with security updates which would be an improvement already. If you have any hint, I'd strongly appreciate a reply. Thank you! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
