This is a good sign of the adoption rate of PEAR 1.4.x, and I think it is time to deprecate package.xml 1.0 and specifically the xml-rpc server. Deprecation does *not* mean disabling. It means putting out a big warning that 1 year from now we will turn off the server, and notify as many sources as possible.Did you read my mind? I was about to propose the same, but with 6 months time to handle instead of a year. The latter is fine for me though.In particular, we need to talk to Zend and figure out their who's who app.I think Steph Fox is our contact with regard to this. If needed, I can talk to her.Comments?This is an important change. Let's go for it.
