Jesper Veggerby (http://pear.php.net/user/nosey) has commented on the proposal for Images::GraPHPite. Comment: I am aware of the issue with the "competing" package, but when I looked at the Image_Graph package I thought that my package (to use your words) beats Image_Graph - at least in functionality and versatility, which I think is what is required to be a useful graph tool (people don't want standard graphs - they want their own) Thanks for clearing the CS part, I must admit the CS manual didn't clarify everything for me, but your comments surely helped alot - already had a "hard" time converting to this - so back on the horse :) As regards to the include.inc file I agree that this is, if not a problem, then an . The issue is that it is not often possible to do lazy loading, since constructing the objects are left to the "user" when creating the graph. That is "I" do not know which classes are to be used. Of course it would be possible for at user to include only what he/she needs and for GraPHPite to include the required classes, but that (IMHO) requires for the user to have much higher knowledge of the package than is really needed. As I hope you can see from this I have given some thought to it, but if anybody have *the* idea, comments are most welcome. Thanks for your time!
