Chris Shiflett has a new post that talks about some of the buzz that's already going around about PHP 6.0 - and the fact that HEAD has been renamed to it.

Now that Derick has renamed HEAD to 6.0, it's time to look ahead at all the great things that are (or might be) in PHP's future. Of course, a major driving factor in PHP's evolution is the Unicode support that Andrei is now merging in. This alone is enough to generate some excitement - Andrei's goal is to make PHP as good as or better than any other Web development language out there when it comes to Unicode support.

He also mentions the email from Rasmus sent the other day with his list of things to get rid of in future releases of PHP. He also gives an interesting link to a namespace patch that has definite potential...

We're starting to see PHP6 coming over the horizion - keep your eyes here for all of the details...
