So other than Config (for now), most other packages are compatible with PHP 5 already? What about the answers to my other questions? How will PEAR be organized in PHP 5? What do I need to look out for when making the transition, etc??

I feel very lost. as I experienced some minutes ago, the package "config" has some problems with xml-parsing. I don't know where is the problem exactly, but it is not compatible. But if I am informed correctly, some of the packages are already compatible. Gruss, Ollie. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
