PHP 5.5 released
PHP 5.5 has now been released
Since Textpattern 4.6 is still a way off, we can probably bump requirement up to PHP 5.3 now can’t we without looking unreasonable?

From the feedback I’ve got on etc_query, a good half of TXP sites are still running on PHP 4…

Re: PHP 5.5 released
As far as I’m concerned, PHP 5.3+ is OK (and I see one of my clients is already on 5.4). A quick look through the settings for shared hosting on some big hosting companies (e.g. dreamhost in the US), all default to 5.3.x.
(iirc Wordpress had some public stats about that sort of things, but I don’t find the URL right now)

Though I’m not quite sure whether I read your suggestion right, here’s the technical base to our minimum system requirements: Neither current trunk nor Textpattern 4.5.4 use any language features beyond those already present PHP 5.2. I don’t feel that the lack of 5.3 features imposes severe limits to our code base.
What do you expect as a benefit of upping our minimum requirements to 5.3?
