Drop support for 5.3? Yes. Absolutely. It's unmaintained.
Jump to bleeding edge 5.6? I don't like it because I use 5.5. And I think 5.4
still gets bug fixes, doesn't it?
Making the currently maintained PHP version the minimum requirement sounds like
a good guideline.

as a base for this discussion:
overview over language-specific features introduces since PHP 5.3
PHP 5.3
- namespaces
- late static binding (static::)
- goto (yay)
- closures
- nowdocs
- const outside of classes
- terniary operator shorthand ?:
- nested exceptions
PHP 5.4
- traits
- sh
Actually the question is, if we should go with PHP 5.3 or just take the
fancy features of 5.6.
Some might argue "we don't need all features necessarily". Thats often
an argument in Java land, and people stick with Java 5 or 6 in some
frameworks because it can be done without.
I think good and fan
Thanks guys for clarifying.
Agree, PSR-4 autoloading would be another improvement.
Introducing Namespaces increases the PHP requirement from currently
>=5.2.7 (according to the composer.json) to >=5.3.0
