Per our amazingly shortsighted CS I thought of a serious problem having to do with the "Major new revisions must be named PackageX where X is the new major version". What happens when PEAR moves to the next major version? Will it ship on PHP as PEAR2? Will I then have /usr/bin/pear and /usr/bin/pear2? Will there be two different directories containing PEAR modules (one for ones installed via PEAR 1.x and one for ones installed via PEAR 2.x)? Will PHP ship with both and then, at compile time, you'll have to choose which one to install? Per the CS rules the package will HAVE to be named PEAR2. Does this mean I'll have to change all of my PEAR::isError()'s to PEAR2::isError()? Wow, that'll suck big time. --Joe -- Joseph C. Stump joe@joestump.net http://www.joestump.net
