Hmm... How strange. I just did a channel-delete and then "pear channel-discover pear.11abacus.com" and it didn't complain. After that: pear install http://pear.11abacus.com/get/PHP_ArrayOf-0.2.0.tgz worked like a charm. > Last minor thing, please link to > <http://www.opensource.org/licenses/bsd-license.php> for > the license.

What might even be better though, since the link is only a "template license" on opensource.org, would be to have that on pear.php.net that would fill the template with actual copyright information. Something like: http://pear.php.net/license/NewBSD/PHP_ArrayOf?y=2007-2008&u=jausions&o=11abacus -Philippe
