Your attitude right now is poisonous, at best. Please change it. Now about this specific comment. I maintained the core of pear, pear.php.net, pear web frontend along many other things around pear for years. At some points I was more busy with php core itself along many other things and also realize that the PEAR project did not match my expectations nor I see it as the future of packages/distributions tool for PHP. So I decided that it is better for my personal, egoistical goals and expectations to leave the project. How did I left? It took months. I ensured that any of my packages have maintainers, I ensured that any of the core components had maintainers, then I left. So please, before you go down your big horse to insult my work and the community, do your homework and respect everyone here providing you the tools and language you use for your own projects. Also I strongly suggest you to consider your own view or vision as one along many, not the only viable absolute truth or usage. Thanks.
