Sounds bad to me. PEAR hosts and cvs should contain only packages that have been approved. CVS should be used for dev purposes. CVS allow TAG, then you can work on a perpetual dev/test versions if you like to. Releases have status and they clearly define the purposes (alpha,beta,stable). I do think that the PEAR package is an approved package, last time I checked :). Of course, that cvs is in php-src/pear.
For experimental sources and/or new things, there are plenty of free hosts or people have personnal webserver on their own company. I cannot imagine as many personnal folder as there are pear members. Not every pear member is working on a change to the PEAR package - I am talking about the code in PEAR.php, and in pear/PEAR/* (PEAR_Common, PEAR_Config, etc.)
