Re: email notifications of releases

Hi Brodie, this has been discussed several times in several variations. However, nothing has been decided yet - but I see that it would be useful. Thank you for your suggestion ... Until now maybe be best solution wound be to use RSS-feeds? Although there are a lot of people out there who don't know how to handle RDF this might be a viable solution. Have a look at: http://pear.php.net/feeds/ One feed per package is available. E.g. for Image_Graph the feed would be: http://pear.php.net/feeds/pkg_image_graph.rss :-)) Others follow the same scheme.
