That said, it makes no sense to rename it only to enable a dummy date class and that's true for all new additions. Before someone comes in and says that PEAR or any other projects don't care about PHP5 and common names/prefix, please consider to read: http://pear.php.net/pepr/pepr-proposal-show.php?id=419 and http://pear.php.net/pepr/pepr-proposal-show.php?id=420 These processes take time and not only for pear.
