RE : [PECL-DEV] PHP-IMS Connector Extension - Subscription

Hi Pierre, Sounds great ! I understand that tests and developments of such an extension require access to a Z/OS environment (extremely specific, but some companies do need it). Anyhow, I agree with your suggestions: - Actual french comments were intended for internal use, not for publication. I may take in charge the translation. - Correct source headers (according to PHP license) will be added. - Package XML description will be added. Maintaining in PECL CVS would be the best actually. Source Forge is only a convenient location to first release the project. Concerning registration and CVS request, will I receive an approval from PECL about acceptance of this IMS extension ? I won't be available next week, so account requests will take place in march.

Some comments: - Please use english comments only - Can you use the standard license headers (as you use the php license)? see other extensions for an example - Add a package.xml (pear installer support) Where will you maintain it? In sourceforge or in php.net cvs? I would suggest to maintain it in our cvs, you may get more feedbacks. In any case, if there is no objection to include "ims" in pecl (wait a couple of days), please request a PECL account on http://pecl.php.net. You will also need a CVS account if you plan to maintain this extension in our cvs, fill this form to request one: http://www.php.net/cvs-php.php Give the valid credentials in your request, a link to this mail will help (using news.php.net/php.pecl.dev) as well as to your sf.net page. --Pierre
