The reason we choose PHP 5.3 was that the standard enforces that all software environment has versions supported by respective developers, with latest security patches installed.

PHP 5.3 was the latest version at the moment we started working on X-Payments (1 year ago).
5.3 will be supported for longer period than 5.2. That means longer lifetime for X-Payments.
