Andrei Zmievski posted on his blog that 50% of the 3084 functions that are bundled with PHP 6 have been upgraded to support and work safely with Unicode. This is a great news to hear about the progress of the PHP6, the next generation of PHP. The development have been accelerated, compared to last months according to Andrei, but I’m still worried the PHP adoption since PHP4 still dominating the market.

Well, PHP boys and girls, this feels like quite a milestone: 50% of the 3084 functions that are bundled with PHP 6 have been upgraded to support and work safely with Unicode. I think it was hovering at around 10% only a few short months ago, so the development has definitely accelerated and, hopefully, the avalanche effect will continue.
