I assigned it to me in order to keep track of it.
We've had two alphas and a beta release between March and now, and another
beta release is planned in PECL shortly. (In fact I had hoped it would be
this week, since Greg's now able to communicate again.) I think 5 months is
a reasonable length of time for an extension to be in alpha-beta,
personally.
You can't call it alpha, continue active development for two months and then
call it stable, that's pointless.
The diff since March is more than 1Mb, it's a different extension already.
At this moment I don't see any reasons to call ext/phar "stable",
therefore it should not be enabled by default.
PHP_5_3 is also not called "stable" at this point. It'd be a different
matter if it were.
Correct.
But they don't install it by default on all computers.
