Re: File_DNS Maintainer

Hi Jonathan, Apologies for the late reply! So the good news is File_DNS is on github - it's really easy to fork the code and add your improvements. I'd encourage you down that path first, as it'll let us work with you to review/etc the relevant code. After a few good patches, we'll hand over the keys. Some ideas you might want to try out in addition to your fixes: 1. Upgrade the code to PHP5 only (it's < 1.0.0; so BC breaks are ok) 2. Run xdebug/phpunit over it, to see what code is covered and whati s missing from the unit tests\ Let us know if you run into trouble - we're in irc (efnet / #pear) or more than happy to help via the pear-dev/pear-qa mailing lists On Fri, Dec 23, 2011 at 11:54 AM, Jonathan Creasy <jc@box.com> wrote: > I'm interested in applying to be the maintainer for File_DNS.
