Hi Martin Jansen, you wrote: > A lot of hosting companies only treat files ending with .php als PHP > files.

While I'm yet indifferent (have to thing more) about .php5 file extension, your reason doesn't count, Martin. As the files of PEAR packages are only include()'d the file extension doesn't matter. [Topic PHP5 packages] If PEAR is gonna to refuse packages coded in plain PHP5 it is going to hit itself. PEAR certainly has to put *very* more thoughts in PHP5 than right now. I know people are repeating that PHP5 is not important until it is widely used, but if we look beyound the borders of PEAR we would see that PHP5 has become quite important yet. Here, I have to agree with Hans - I certainly do want to use PHP5 only packages. Every time I'm writing PHP5 applications I'm missing the awesome code base of PEAR. Now, I'm going to have a look at the package itself :) Regards, -- Michael - < mike(@)php.net >
