Besides, you complain about the lack of such a guide. What exactly prevents you from writing one yourself?
Alexey, do you have this last sentence tatooed somewhere in your body?
Not yet, but I'll consider this.
The main problem i saw in PEAR since the begining wasnt technical, was as someone said, managerial. I can name a lot of good technical companies/technologies that disappear even being the best option in the market. Betmax is classical, Netscape is the new one. PEAR? Will not make a big wave if it disapPEAR, looking at the current state of affairs. Being the best technical 'stuff' in the market, with the best brains (the technical ones) doesnt grant your future. So yes, we need dummies, lots of them. And we have to spent time (ugh!) helping THEM. They make the market, they make the community. Unless you think a bunch of 10 to 50 guys is a internet community. To me is a good start, at least.
After you wrote all this, are we any closer to whatever goals we have? No. If you've spent this time writing "the dummies guide to PEAR" or whatever, could we be closer? Maybe. *That* is my point, no more no less.
