Yes, SMF works fine with PHP 5.0.x.  I have worked with it using those versions, and no one has reported any problems (save some strict notices that can't be avoided without breaking 4.)  In fact, I would recommend using PHP 5, because it's faster... but, it may break other scripts.

It may also work with MySQL 4.1.0 now as well (I have done some testing on this) but it is currently not recommended.  MySQL 4.0.x is much more recommended ;).

i've also got it running on php 5.0.2... it's actually faster than on php4, and even faster than phpBB for php5 :D

Keep up the good work, Devs
