I do not agree here with pecl.php.net. From the early days of PEAR, it contains PEAR and PECL, the roadmaps of PEAR was always to take care of PECL inside the PEAR infrastructure. Highlight PECL package inside pear.php.net is quit enough. As a sidenote, the installer currently does not support multiple master servers. Please do not split the whole things, I understand the need of splitting the cvs tree (even if I still do see all the pros/cons), but why do you want suddenly get PECL out of PEAR and still use the pear infrastructure? This is not the way we plan from months now. And I think we should not got this way. Even if some of the phpdev team actually discover the pear/pecl is not the siberia and is a nice system :) > So, the summary: > > Lets promote PECL somewhat.

Lets promote the "universal" installer infrastructure used by PECL as well (and fix/enhance it as said earlier). pierre ps: pear's don quichotte :) -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
