http://pear.php.net/pepr/pepr-proposal-show.php?id=289 Any initial thoughts or complaints? This just governs the fact that PEAR packages should not depend on external channel packages. Pretty simple and makes sense, just thought it should be in place before PEAR 1.4.0 hits the streets.
Big +1 from me, we definitely need to add this to the coding standards. Requiring packages from external channels will only lead to problems. I also agree, no exceptions should ever be made to this rule. If a package really must depend on an external channel, then the maintainer of that package could always "pearify" is and propose it as a PEAR package. -- Matthew
