Below is a list of all major PHP versions and the date they retired or will retire (if still actively maintained). Any version of PHP past it's 'end of life' date is listed in red and is VERY unsafe to use.
Any version of PHP that is approaching the 'end of life' date is shown in orange and should be upgraded NOW!
