We are planning to make the whole website public when PHP 4.3.0 is released, as this will be the first release that comes with *full* PEAR support. I know that the current situation is a bit messy, but imagine what will happen when we are going to make the website public right now: People will not be able to use the tools we are advertising, because their PHP distribution (4.2.x) only comes with outdated and buggy versions of the PEAR infrastructure. This will result in a immense flood of support questions and I'm not sure if that's what we like ;-). > 2 How often is documentation generated? It should be generated daily if there have been changes. Otherwise it is re-generated once a week, IIRC. > Would it be unrealisitic to > have package documentation generated with each release of a package > and linked to the package-info page? That would perhaps make sense if every package came with end-user documentation. But since that's not the case ATM, I don't think that this makes sense. Apart from that the build process takes quite some time and is not connected to the PEAR website at all. -- - Martin Martin Jansen http://martinjansen.com/
