Ilia Alshanetsky has posted about the release of the latest release candidate for the upcoming PHP version, 5.2 - PHP 5.2.0 RC3.

The third and possibly the final release candidate of PHP 5.2.0 is now available for download. The number of changes are fairly small, which is always good when nearing the final release, but there were 2 important fixes that need attention.

He notes that there are only really two major issues that need to be addressed before the final release and are included in this release candidate - a memory corruption issue and a problem in the session shutdown order.

You can download this release now: Bzipped file || Gzipped file.
