Unfortunatley this is very much not true. How many undocumented packages exist in PEAR? How many packages have half-assed their way through the docs that do exist and thus are useless anyhow? PEAR is the largest undocumented repository I have ever heard of. Granted, some of who do write docs are very good at it. Unfortunatley they are a minority. I'm not trying to rip on Stephen here, I'm just hoping that some day PEAR might set a standard for itself in practice rather then just on paper. - Stan Sterling Hughes wrote:
Who cares about the docs if the package is good? PEAR has enough people who write good docs ;) -Sterling On Tue, 2003-09-09 at 14:16, Lorenzo Alberton wrote:

I see the exscuse that docs will be added after acceptance as a reason not to accept the package.
well, this is true, but I definitely trust Stephan, he always writes good documentation for his packages (just have a look at http://www.php-tools.de/), so I don't see why he shouldn't do the same for this package... I'm sure he will write complete docs, once his package gets accepted... --- Lorenzo
