Let's remove PHP 4 from the changelog here, and in the changelogs of any other functions that missed the big cull that happened last year.

I have already removed it from the specific usort page and forgot to assign it to me. Can we close this now or are we going to hunt for other php4 changelogs first?

Assigning to Pieter to hunt down the remaining PHP 4 changelog entries.

If I could recommend the way to proceed :) Change PhD processing instruction in doc-base/manual.xml.in - changelog-since="PHP 5" (or something very similiar, I don't remember exact name), to reflect PHP 4. Then build XHTML format and just browse to doc.changelog.htm

That's the way I did mentioned "big cull" last year. On the other hand, I'm surprise that we still have PHP4 changelogs, apparently I missed them.

Thanks, that's pretty helpful (the processing instruction is
changelog-config-since, by the way). I just did it and found 47
functions with PHP 4 changelog entries. I don't have doc/en karma,
so I can't fix them.

Anyhow, it appears to me that there are much more changes pending
wrt. to the PHP 4 removal from the manual. For instance, there are
still a lot of functions being marked up with from='PHP 4 >= 4.3.0,
PHP 5' in versions.xml, a lot of ini settings have "Available since
PHP 4.3.0.", and there are plenty of descriptions like "Until PHP
4.3.0, omitting it would assume 1024 as the line length." Seems to
be a lot of work to find and fix all of this.

Christoph: we discussed it and format in versions will stay the same, at least for now. I'll take care of those changelogs today, no idea how I missed them.

When it comes to inline references: I'm totally aware that there are still many of them, but it's time consuming task, so any help (in example, in form of patches :)) is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for keeping me briefed, Maciej. I'll see what I can do wrt.
the inline patches. For now I've made a patch which removes all PHP
<= 5.0.0 changelog entries I was able to find.

Hello Christoph:

I'm sorry, but I cant' apply your patch at this moment. Just removing the changelogs is not a problem, the real one is that most of the information in entries that left is available only in changelogs. Therefore, it must be moved outside the changelogs to not loose it. This is why it took so long to remove all the references.

I'm closing this particular bug report. It's too wide and I'm unable to track current progress state myself - many cases were fixed in last year.
