For a private project I would have touched lots of the PHPLib code (auth, perm, menu, some widget stuff) anyway during the next months. While doing this I can "pearify" the code. As there's a huge user base that relies on the PHPLib, we have to provide wrapper classes for the initial release so that we do not break compatibility. Don't know where to place these wrapper classes, maybe in the PHPLib CVS. We'll see, don't haste. Ulf
