Yes. It runs under PHP4 as well as PHP5. The plan was that the version
2.8.2 will be the last, which will work with PHP4 because we want to use
PHP5 features - like autoloading of classes, lazy evaluation... However,
we are still not happy with PHP 5 stability - there is no stable
accelerator for it. We tried APC, which was useless since it breaks some
SSI pages. Now we are evaluating eAcelerator from CVS which is better,
but still not in final version and it sometimes makes "Segmentation
fault".

So you are using normal items for the comments? In that case we have
"Slice Admin -> Email Notification". However - you need to set it
manually through admin interface - there is not automatic subscription
like in new discussions.

Not sure, if I understand. But if you have multiple item ids in say
relation........ field, then you can use:

    {item:{@relation........:-}:_HEADLINE:, }

Of course you can use any field/alias/aa_expression instead of
_#HEADLINE, so you can display also multivalues by this alias in target
item.
