More ideas? Comments? so i started with a automated .tgz-creation script. see at http://php.chregu.tv/?file=samples/MkPackages.php it's just a start, but does the Job in the cvs/pear directory (there are no packages.xml files in php4/pear...) Start it in your cvs/pear dir on the commandline, if you want to try it out. Contributions to it are very welcome chregu
