Re: [PHP] Should I go with the Singleton Pattern or wait for 5.3?

Hello, I'm planning out a simple project and most probably I will need
the functionality provided by the Singleton pattern.
However with the next 5.3 release I would be able to conveniently use
classes directly without instancing them.
This would be a comparable option thanks to late state binding and the
possibility to reference the class using a variable.

What path do you suggest I should take? I can wait for the 5.3 release
since I'm not in a hurry.
I would like to hear your opinions in particular regarding the
performance and code maintainability aspects.

Is this a decision for the whole project or just one particular part of
it? Can that one part be put off until later or does it need to be done
first?
