Yes yes I'm a zealot.  :)

If the people defining the PEAR standards really were that interested in
standards,
why include alternate ways of doing something?  <?=$blah;?>
And if the 'short tag' method is useful enough for people, why 'exclude' it
from a standard?  This notion of 'PEAR standards' does irk me some, because
it's been so long in coming, and people are deferring to it before it's a reality.

At least, that's the impression that I get.
