Hi again, One of the forums has this to say:
A solution? Make PEAR a package manager/installer. Also a public repository in charge of namespaces. Insist on complete test coverage and documentation rather than rejecting on grounds of duplication. If a module became unpopular or has too many a bug, record this fact and make it public. Let the library self select.

But it would open up both the competitive fronts while at the same time retaining quality standards (coding standards, documentation, etc). -- Paul M.
