"Not allowed" is maybe a bit too much. But you are *strongly*
encouraged not to do it :-))
By the way: When working in CVS you're also strongly encouraged to
have an up-to-date package.xml-file (not version-number and comments
but at least the filelist for install). You can either do that by
hand by simply adding every file you add at the time when you add it
(as I do it) or by using the PackageFileManager (as Toby does it,
look here for the script he uses:
http://cvs.php.net/co.php/pear/Image_Text/generate_package_xml.php?r=1
.6)
Hope that helps. Regards,
Stefan
PS: Despite such minor things, I'm really looking forward to having
your package in the rep.
