Hi,

The PEAR's website section "How to contribute code in practice" states that:
"If you already have a CVS repository somewhere else (e.g. on SourceForge),
or if you don't want to maintain your code via CVS, you don't need the PHP
CVS account."
Hence my request.
Now, I am all ok to grant a Sourceforge "pear account" full permission, just
in case. Who should I contact for that? Is there already a trusted PEAR SF
account?
Regardless of CVS/SVN, I need to have my pear.php.net upgraded, right?

If SVN was available on PEAR, I would host the project on PEAR, of course.
