Seriously, PEAR_ should be the prefix.
PEAR_ or Pear_, not a single letter, agreed.
It should be PEAR in my opinion, as that's how the project is named. "Pear" could be confused with the fruit. ;-) Regards, Mark
The odds that PEAR_ will conflict with something a user has already done are about 700,000 times lower than the odds with P_. "P" isn't available for "ownership". Besides, "P_" can stand for "pathetic", "putrid", and a bunch of other not so nice things. Let's not be ambiguous.
