Re: Re: re-proposal of pecl/phar for inclusion in core

Hi Marcus,

1. include phar in core 2.a. add ext/zip compatible functions and replace ext/zip 2.b. change ext/zip to use zip lib of pahr and add stream support 3. drop ability to disable spl I have no preference between 2a or 2b. Though technically I guess that 2a is probably much faster to achive.

You're behind the times. Check it out; 18 of the 20 broken tests are down to the fact that we can no longer 'knit' a pure zip archive because Greg dropped the ext/zip dependency.

p.s.: I haven't done much in regards to Phar lately - and can only say that

     you did an amazing not expect job. You turned Phar into something way
     better than we ever thought of.

Hear, hear! - Steph
