Maybe because nobody from the > projects feels responsible? Geez tensions are running high. I am the tester for PEAR, and I tested the PEAR Installer (I do not test the gazillion packages that I don't maintain) and it worked great with PHP 5.1.4. PEAR doesn't use $_POST and I did not detect any errors. In the past I have found at least 4 PHP bugs when testing PEAR with PHP. The fact is, most of the bugs I find are found the instant they are introduced as I use the CVS of PHP_5_X for my testing. In fact the system is working quite well from my end, but I can't vouch for other projects. Greg
