Subject: Testers needed for PHP's File Upload functionality

Significant changes have recently been made to PHP's HTTP file upload 
functionality. Before the changes are incorporated into a major 
release, the PHP Development team wishes to ensure that the changes 
receive thorough testing.

We are seeking 20=30 testers to build and/or install the current 
development version of PHP and test all of their file upload scripts 
with the new version. Ideally, those testing will use PHP's file upload 
functionality on a regular basis (or use third-party scripts that do).

These people should then report back to the PHP Quality Assurance team 
mailing list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) if the scripts worked or failed. If 
the scripts failed, the tester should also report details about the 
failure.

Users running Linux-like operating systems should download the snapshot 
from snaps.php.net that is dated [???], and then build and install it. 
Instructions on building and installing the snapshot are included in 
the download.

Users running a Windows-family operating system can download a 
pre-compiled binary from http://...


Thank you,

The PHP Developer and Quality Assurance Teams

We should probably send the letter separately to all the PHP lists with 
high traffic.
