My host has PHP version 5.2.17 installed, which does not meet the module requirements. Upgrading seems to be hard. What kind of problems is expected, or is there some work around available?

Congrats for the release, by the way - you're doing Great Job, appreciated!

Hi Abilnet, when the requirement for PHP5.3 was introduced (almost 20 months ago) it was to have access to the better date functionality of PHP5.3. You will face issues with that on PHP5.2. Let me also point out that PHP5.3 is no longer the "new" version, PHP5.4 is in stable release as well, so a host that does not support PHP5.3 is really not keeping up with times. I would suggest you look into an alternative, not just for Rooms but for several other Drupal modules as well.

@bgogoi I'm afraid that you will need to upgrade or change to a different hosting environment to use Rooms - PHP 5.3.3 is quite ancient at this point.
