Nathan Fredrickson (http://pear.php.net/user/nrf) has commented on the proposal for Encryption::Crypt_GPG. Comment: Re: 'The better and more debatable justification is "PHP 5 is maturing, and we expect that most new scripts will use it be the time we make a stable PEAR release."' Yes, PHP 5 is maturing; our company has just completed migrating exisitng sites to PHP 5 and we're doing all new development work in PHP 5. The PEAR community may want to / have to migrate more slowly and that's fine. We wrote this package to scratch our own itch and if it is useful to others that's great. The feedback has been excellent and the second release is far better than the first. However error handling is important when running external binaries and we're not really interested in stripping out the nice exception handling to make this package work in PHP 4. Of course somebody else is free to back port it to PHP4...
