Re: status of tomas' packages

Hi,

Now, it would seem that both leads of this package have been busy as of late (read: > 6months) I would like to point you all in the direction of: http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=1415 This is a patch that fixes 6 XML_Tree bugs, dating from as far back as October 2003. The fact that neither of the leads have fixed any of these bugs, despite numerous patches/fixes being supplied, makes me wonder if they are even bothered about the package anymore.

[...] this applies to another package, but is the same problem as the one Davey describes here: As you might remember, I agreed to take over HTTP_Upload some weeks ago when Lukas asked who volunteered for which of Tomas' packages. Since then, I have fixed most of the outstanding bugs of the package, however the thread "tomas packages" somehow died, unfortunately, so I still do not have the karma to submit something to the package and also cannot roll a new release; I guess the stand-in maintainers for Tomas' other packages have also not been officially provided with karma yet. So the question is, will at some point this karma be provided, or are there any other necessary steps that must be taken in order to get these packages back on track again?

you already have lead karma on HTTP_Upload regards, Lukas Smith smith@backendmedia.com _______________________________ BackendMedia www.backendmedia.com berlin@backendmedia.com Linn Zwoch Smith GbR Pariser Str. 44 D-10707 Berlin Tel +49 30 83 22 50 00 Fax +49 30 83 22 50 07
