We're up to PHP 5.2.13 now. Are there any real differences between 5.2.6 and 5.2.13 that would make updating the package worth the effort?

I doubt it is worthwile to bother switching from 5.2.x to another 5.2.x in testing environment. I suppose this is more importent for production web hosts where security is of the top priority.

Change from 5.2 to 5.3 would probably make sense. We will try to release a 5.3.x version once it gets more mature.

In XAMPP directory PHP directory edit the php.ini you will find all of the xdebug parameters on the very bottom
most of them are remarked out you will need to configure these.

Hi, yes, we are thinking about this. However, I can not tell you if this will be added with the next update, or a bit later.
