Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] cairo-0.2.2 (beta) Released.

Excuse the trolling, I have provided maybe 5 lines of C code to pecl so I am sort of speaking out of place here but Enough is Enough, Pierre I respect you greatly and the work you do for php, but the jabs just are not helpful, yes maybe Hartmut jumped past a couple steps and should of taken a little more time to post to the list but he is just trying to help. Hartmut, I only wish my C was good enough that I could contribute to pecl directly. I don't know how long you have been on the list but even someone like me who trolls this list just to keep track of the pecl world knows that extension naming is something that often comes up on the list and is heavily discussed, to not post to the list prior is just short of disrespectful to the community. So maybe we can end the finger pointing, discuss what a proper name would be in a civilized manner and move on.

A bit too much now, I deleted it. There was no discussion about it and if you have asked before, call it whatever you like but not "cairo".

i don't care about the name, could as well stay with cairo_wrapper as i named it on php-baustelle.de ... but a simple "cairo" seemed to be more to the point here Yes, i didn't discuss the name on the list, but there were several personal requests to "move this to PECL" or "just commit" ... and so i did.

Then name it peclgen_cairo or whatever you like but not "cairo". Yes, I'm late with the release of the real binding, but if you have a clue about Cairo, you would have noticed that it reached its API stable state only recently, without talking about stability in general (smgt like a couple of months with the 1.2.x serie). And I'm sorry that I did not have the time to finalize it while working on other php part, like for the 5.2.x release. --Pierre
