At last I'm finding a little more time I can dedicate to amazOOP, so I've started coding version 0.4. However, I've ran into a big dilemma...
amazOOP's goal is to provide an object oriented API to consume Amazon Web Services, however it hasn't done a very good job... This is partly due to the fact that OOP support in PHP4 is very limited. So I was wondering, what if we make the move to PHP5? After all, it's no loger a beta (as it was when amazOOP was first released...)
So, I'd like to know what you, the actual users, think about this?
I impatiently await your comments.
Regards,
Mauricio

If it's change you're worried about, I think moving to PHP5 would be the least of your concerns, since I'm writing the next version of amazOOP from scratch and I'm keeping in mind that I'm writing an API and not an application. Ergo, the next version of amazOOP will be completely different from 0.3.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Absolutely, the move to PHP5 is a good idea. Not to mention that those that still need PHP4 support can stick with the previous version.
There are a number of good reasons:
Better object oriented implementation and better/easier xml handling = it will be far more efficient to handle large Amazon responses and many instances if needed.
I've been hoping for some time, now.
Please go for it.

Hi there Mauricio,
How is the new version going?
Would you happen to want help hacking on it?
I would like to do part if you would have it.
