[PHP-DEV] PHP 3.0.10 Released June 25th From: Jim Winstead (jimw <email protected>)
Date: 06/26/99

PHP Version 3.0.10 has been released (both as source and Windows
binaries). Many more bug fixes, including the last of the fsockopen()
and URL fopen() problems, we hope. The dbm database abstraction
layer had the mode flag for dba_open() brought into line with
dbm_open(), which means "w" will not create a non-existent database
(use "c" instead). The documentation has also been moved into its
own repository, and the generated HTML documentation is included
in the tar.gz instead of the SGML source. The complete ChangeLog
from 3.0.9 is below.

A reminder: We've created a new mailing list that will receive
future announcements about new PHP releases and other issues relevant
to the PHP community (don't worry, no spam from us, and the list
is moderated).
