Especially about the "allow competitive packages"-part Alexey mentions I feel a little worried. Then we will end up like other class-collections are already, with the hundreds implementation. And this is imho one of the best features PEAR actually has.

I don't honestly think this concern is valid. I'm not advocating removing the proposal process and using an "anything goes" attitude. I just want to dump the need for a new developer to jump through hoops to prove that his *well-written* package is "different enough". Most of the things in the "class collections" are sh*t and don't have a chance of passing the PEAR proposal process. :]
