Beta means Beta means don't use it for anything you need to rely on. It may take 5 minutes to fix, but it was obviously 5 minutes that pierre did not have. May I remind you that *there is no warranty* on anything related to PHP, that pierre is not employed to work on this stuff, and that he has *absolutely no obligation* to do anything about it, *even if it was a stable release*. Now, I'm sure he does care about the package, but it is *beta* after all. Perhaps if this situation arises again, a helpful pear admin could fix and make an interim release on such a broken package, with the package developers consent. Lets move on with our lives now... --Wez. > Release fast, release often.
