I would like not to postpone this decision: 1) I do not know if 2 months from now I will be able to dedicate my time to OpenSource development.
Well, if you plan on abandoning your package in two months, why should it be accepted? Or is this just a 'take my ball and go home comment'?
My fault. I didn't want my comment to sound like this. What I essentially meant is: Right now I have enough spare time and desire to work on this project. And the current version of 'my' ITX needs to have some improvements (code-related, as well as docs and examples), that I already planned to do. I am not sure that I will have the same amount of spare time (and PEAR community is working quite hard on destroying my desire as well) to implement these improvements in two months' time, and I am not allowed to know today on what package I should work and whether my work is needed by someone. As for 'abandoning the package', someone here thrown 'good code does not need maintaining' at me in some of the previous flames. Receive it back. Besides, I'll *certainly* be able to fix small bugs in any case, just not add more features.
