No, for a NEW project I would use PHP4 sessions.
I see no reason to use the PHPLIB sessions, since PHP4 sessions is almost a
one2one copy of that functionality. (If you do not want to use the User/Auth
stuff.)
On the other hand I would probably build a class around the PHP4 session
stuff, so if there is a very very clean and lean implementation this might
be an option.

One reason is: like you say there are 'various' implementations in tree ...

But: we should be *very* happy with these implementations for those who have
old projects that need to be ported to PHP4, using PHP4 sessions.

Greetings
Jeroen.
