Is it right to ask from a end user point of view, please maintain 2  
pear servers.  First one for H4 and second one for H4&H5 together.  I  
may be asking too much from developers, but, it may ease the burden  
for end user.

As I was looking at the demo.horde.org, the user interface is  
completely different from the existing H4.  I may have to first  
install and try out Horde 5 before releasing it to the users.   
Meanwhile, our management has given me go ahead with H4.  But, having  
a single pear server, what is the easiest way to install H4.  I want  
to start afresh on a new server (having good configuration).

I am not sure, whether such requirements will come to some more users.  
  But, I have a feeling, users may have patching problems with H4 as  
and when something is upgraded for H4 for either to provide a feature  
or to solve a security issue.

I think, nobody will directly venture into H5 for production purpose,  
and hence, there should be an easy way to install H4.

These are just my suggestions/anticipated problems.

Expecting some comments from user community as well as developer community.

Regards,
Anant.
