The PECL package statistics for our sdo project show a goodly number of downloads, > 300, but we have not had many bug reports or other feedback. We are just wondering whether these downloads are all genuine or whether there is some automated download process which is artifically bumping these numbers. Is there any way to tell?
No .. I doubt anyone has some automated script installing PECL extensions. There are however people that do this for PEAR packages and a few magazines bundle PEAR packages on CD's .. not sure if they do the same for PECL packages. I think the situation with sdo is just that its somewhat intimidating. regards, Lukas PS: I have been meaning to download and install sdo for quite sometime now. Just never got around to it :-(
