Supposing there are no available servers for automatic testing of all OSes, we could have a table resuming the testing status for each package and each version on pear.php.net: Testing stats for version 0.1: ---------------------- | OS | tested | ------------------ | Linux | yes | | OSX | yes | | Solaris | no | | Windows | no | --------------------- Who would update this table? any PEAR developer? anyone? members of a PEAR "testing task force"? why do I try to answer questions with more questions? who knows...
