RE: [PEAR-DEV] Re: PEAR Account, Please

Ok, figured it out... but did so by looking at the PEAR account form's source code. The "intended purpose" required field is the one with this field title: "Short summary of package that you have finished and are ready to propose:" After spending two days figuring out this form, I'd "propose" that this field text be changed. In my case, I don't have a new package to propose... I just want to help maintain an existing package. If input in this field is required for my purpose, I'd suggest labeling the field differently. Plus, the error message "Please enter Intended purpose" doesn't seem to fit that field, especially when that field is preceded by the "purpose" checkbox field.

I tried the PEAR account request page yesterday, but walked away from it feeling like the form itself is a trick question. All the instructions say "you don't need an account to do" all the things shown in the "purpose of your PEAR account" list. If I check ANYTHING on that list, the form fails saying "The purpose(s) you selected do not require a PEAR account". If I leave them all blank (which is what I did to begin with), it still fails, this time with "Please enter Intended purpose". DIIdo, DIIdon't... what am I missing?

Just go these two addresses and fill out the forms: http://pear.php.net/account-request.php http://www.php.net/cvs-php.php Please mention Gregs name and the phpDocumentor package in both requests.
