Make sure to keep us in the loop on this new code since there seems to be enough interest in, even just as an observer.

For those interested I can tell that I have started working on an S3 library written from scratch. I talked to Till and he hasn't started his implementation yet, so there is no duplicating of efforts. I plan to write a general OO library and then write a stream wrapper that utilizes this library. Not all aspects of the S3 API can be mapped to a PHP stream wrapper. The library is taking shape nicely. Next on the todo list is ACL support and better error handling. A snapshot can be seen here (comments are welcome): https://dev.dev.peytz.dk/~dr/src/S3/S3/ I really needed a working stream wrapper by last week, so I wrote one that utilizes another S3 library found on the net (this library had some major problems, so I chose to write my own). It works pretty good including emulated support for folders. I plan to convert this wrapper to use my own library. I intend to propose this to PEAR in the not too distant future. BTW I think stream wrappers is one of the most underestimated features in PHP. I am surprised that there aren't wrappers available for all kinds of tree-structured data sources. Christian
