Well I recommend a wrapper written in PHP for API BC compatibility along with a sed script to change existing code to the new API. But that depends on your level of dedication towards the PEAR/PECL community, which does expect you to tailor your extension/package to its needs. If this is not feasible for you, you will have to maintain two packages or wait til someone else puts in the time. > BTW, since there is no any other SpeedTemplate yet (according to Google), > I > think that would be a good name for the PECL package.
