Hi, A user just came into #pear who wanted to submit a fix for Mail_IMAPv2.. However the package has no public SCM, so the user will not venture elsewhere for his IMAP needs. Did we ever start to mandate a public SCM? If not maybe someone is motivated to write a PEPr RFC for this.
A public SCM is a rule. Either this package got in before this was checked or it was missed by someone.... It was never made into a rule, it's one of those "unwritten" known how that most pear devs have now ... some time way back I did some blog posts and ML posts about this topic (about having it also applied backwards i.e.. older packages, I think)
Hence Lukas point. And now that you can create a SVN repo in mins with googlecode, there is no more reason to accept packages without SCM. --Pierre
