Since it's currently XML_Tree 2.0.0 beta, leave it that way and move to XML_Tree2 releases. Make the first 2.0.0 stable release as XML_Tree2 so that people won't get burned by the BC breaks. Note in the package description for XML_Tree that it is superceded by XML_Tree2 (not XML_Tree 2.0.0) but has BC breaks.This isn't an option. the 2.0.0 version was the latest release when I got a hold of the package, and has been the version since September 2003....Now you see the difficulty? By removing the 2.0.0 branch anyone with this installed is screwed.They all have "beta" states. So, anyone using them has got a clue, thus they'll be able to figure out that the stable release can be found over in XML_Tree2. Plus, the folks who don't have a clue won't get burned by the BC breaks when doing "pear upgrade," which normally only brings in stable packages.
