[wp-hackers] php 5.5.0 is out........

[DJ Sylvester]

I don't think there will be a big jump to 5.5 for plugin/theme 
development as 5.2 is still the predominate version used with WordPress 
installs. I'm still waiting (hoping) for the day 5.3 becomes the minimal 
requirement (namespaces and closures anyone).
