There are a few:
- better OOP with abstract classes (e.g. address book sources) and public/private/static declarations

Of course the devs can make use of all the other nice features of

you get used to the new features that PHP5 offers you just want to use
them.We have 2007, PHP5 has proven to be reliable and stable, so don't be
afraid of going for it.With all these changes, we could also get rid of our database
abstraction class and either use PDO or implement MDB2.Exactly - PDO is a really nice way of accessing the database, it's fast,
reliable and just works for a lot of different databases! Don't stay
with PHP4!Mike
