Hey, I'm currently trying to take Services_Google through PEPr, and seem to keep coming up against the "do a PHP4 version" argument. Since this thread is likely to get rapidly away from the topic, I'm not doing this mail from PEPr, where the thread will get stuck in the comments list. It seems to me that since PHP 5.0.0 is now out, it's time to just accept PHP 5 packages into PEAR without having to justiy your usage of the current *stable* version of PHP. I know it's not quite production ready yet, but I feel that unless people actually start writing PHP 5 packages PEAR is going to get stuck using PHP 4 for a good long time from now, due to the rules on BC breaks. And just to get back on topic, please don't add any more comments to Services_Google asking for PHP 4 versions, I have no intention of writing one. If you are using PHP 4, you havn't lost anything, because the package never existed for PHP 4, if you've got 5, lucky you, you can do Google searches. Jon
