Just an idea. :-) This is a very good idea. There are plans to implement such things in the extension. This way it will be easier to port/modify this package to follow the development of the exif extension. As I said, is the time a real problem? You both already use your packages, with or without pear. Sebastian, is there a special reason to publish it right now? or is it not better to take the time? Keeping in mind the near futur of the exif extension. hth pierre
