I would like to request that PEAR developers review PEAR_PackageFileManager and determine its worthiness as a PFC. It has full unit tests, docs, and has been stable for quite some time with no open bugs. It only depends on the PEAR package, which I guess by nature must be PFC. This of course raises "what is a PFC" again - full unit tests - full documentation - stable - many downloads (how many is many?) - peer-reviewed - no open coding bugs for more than a certain amount of time (how long?) - willingness to let QA step in immediately with both cvs commits and package drops/releases - PEAR CS - no stupid stuff (sudden BC breaks, stable too early, etc.)
