WP dominating the internet, with the help of old forgotten sites, like the deserted mining cities in the american wasteland. Or something like that. But good to know that its only 16% thats on 5.2. Also if those using 5.2 also are those that dont update the WP install anyway why not increase the minimum requirement. The old users wont b e affected. Heck push an warning into some upcoming version of WP that future verfsion will require PHP 5.4 or something and include that warning when the update comes as well. WP lead devs are too conservative, there needs a paradigm shift in who actually leads the project. So far it all seems to be the same old thinking year in year out just the figureheads changes (if that). Like North Korea ;).
