    4 The support team is planning the upgrade of our servers from Debian 6 to Debian 7, which has important implications for member web sites. The people responsible for maintaining MF/PL member sites should ensure that your web software will be compatible with PHP 5.4. Failure to ensure compatibility may result in your web site failing to work properly.

    10 The most significant change during this upgrade is the change from PHP version 5.3 to PHP 5.4. PHP is a programming language used by many programs that run web sites, such as Drupal, Joomla and WordPress. Older versions of these programs may not work properly under the newer version of PHP. If you are running Drupal, WordPress, Joomla or any web application that is running under PHP and you are not sure if you are running a compatible version, please check-in with your technical advisories or post a [/newticket tiket on our support system] to ask us to investigate and offer advice.
