Testing latest revision of THT now on PHP 5.5.0 and everything is working normally if deprecation warnings are disabled.

Here is a list of the deprecated functions and classes in 5.5.x. Is THT using PDO? If not, it would require to refactorize the db class.

The rest of the project can be easy to upgrade, using the "search in files" tool of many IDE and editors. Personally, I can do it with Sublime.

Seems like a good way?

THT uses raw mysql_ functions throughout. Replacing all the applicable/deprecated/removed functions with their new counterparts should be sufficient. Decent testing would be required afterwards, of course.
