I'm glad it helped a lot of people and we are certainly looking forward in having this package in PEAR so it can become even easier for the Arab world to distribute and use the package. However in order for a package to be accepted it needs to comply to certain rules and standards in order to keep the level of maintainability and quality in general high. This package needs some work in terms of standardization and I'm sure we can provide great help and tips on improving the structure of the package itself in order to make it much more flexible and to make it comply to our standards. Khaled, if you need help at some point do not hesitate to ask for it as we understand it can sometimes be quite difficult to adhere to standards and change existing practices. We'll do whatever needs to be done in order to mentor and help you along the way :) Cheers, -- Slan, David
