As said before, I do believe that BC is possible (at a minor performance loss), and that I'd prefer to se BC implemented in subclasses which add the needed functions - the composer class should allready be almost BC... I also believe it's possible having both API's installed at the same time without any problems... > (If the maintainers of Mail_Mime agree - but I hope this can be discussed > open-minded ... for the sake of "pear-as-a-whole", not personal attitudes). I for one have no personal attitude in this concern - my package fits my needs (or will when the save/restore-feature is implemented). If the proposal is possitively recieved, I suppose it'll be included PEAR one way or another...
