There's nothing in the documentation that discourages it. The packages who have chosen $someVar as public variables have simply not looked to packages that came before them for the example/precendent that had been set. That is hardly a recommendation. Seems like this needs to either get a directive from PEAR Group, or a vote via PEPr. -Clay -- Killersoft.com
