Derick,

do you have an idea how much code is "out there" that has classes named "Date"?

Above all, you can definitely not introduce new classes in RC6!
And this date class doesn't even seem to provide any functionality, so
that there would be an incentive (or even possibility) to migrate
projects using PEAR::Date to the new Date class. Why did this class
have to be crippled (i. e. deactivating its methods) BUT incorporated
in 5.1 and why not before RC6?
