Hello,
I have upgraded to MediaWiki 1.16.0 on my test wiki's. However, we currently run PHP 5.1.6 (upgrading within a month). Would you suggest waiting until PHP has been upgraded, or is there folks running a non supported version without issue.
What would the recommendation be? I am interested to know what the potential for issues would be.
Current: MediaWiki Ver. 1.11.0
Thank you!

MediaWiki still supports PHP 5.1.x. There was talk of dropping support in a future version,[0] but there shouldn't be any compatibility problems for the time being.
