Well incomplete or not, the package is stable, and if I understood you right
then you didn't understand .phpt fully which kinda makes me worried as to
how you'll port the tests over to phpunit without missing something but I do
admint that PFM2rather few tests
But wouldn't you find it confusing if you came across a package with 2 tests
of test frameworks in place ?

Okey are you seriously going to argue that you're the only person in PEAR
that fixes bugs and does tests for them ? Don't you feel like you're
stepping over a line here in terms of proper communications ?
I must ask you to chose your wording in next emails more carefully and with
more respect to your fellow developers, we have no room for arrogance.
