You'll have to wait until your CVS account is approved to checkin tyour sources into the PHP/PEAR repository. However, you could already release a version without CVS account, you'll just have to go to "New Package" on pearweb and let it approve by the PEAR group. As soon as this has been done (and you got the approval mail), you can release your stuff through "Upload Release"

Thanks Michael & Martin -- both of your messages helped. I'm not in a rush for the CVS account, since mine _is_ a Subversion package! : ) Would it be feasible to have the PEPr cronjob that closes proposals detect which proposals have been approved for developers who do not have full-fledged accounts, and automatically upgrade those accounts upon closing of votes?

No I think its better to have a manual step inbetween. That way we can check if the voting process went in a sensible manner. Also we can check with the authors in case there were a number of conditional votes etc.

That, plus an automatic e-mail to the developer explaining the next steps would probably help get packages out of "approved" status and released on the site much more quickly.

Isnt this stuff covered in the manual? regards, Lukas Smith smith@backendmedia.com _______________________________ BackendMedia www.backendmedia.com berlin@backendmedia.com Linn Zwoch Smith GbR Pariser Str. 44 D-10707 Berlin Tel +49 30 83 22 50 00 Fax +49 30 83 22 50 07
