Then export all symbols and be done with that. I don't think I like to redo the discussion why PECL rocks. PECL allows us to release extensions more often than PHP releases. I never claim that I can write bug less code and that's why I like to have the freedom to release it as soon as important fixes are available. On the other side, PECL allows me to release development versions and get much more feedbacks than the PHP snapshots will ever get. Can I suggest to slightly calm down and change your tone? thanks. -- Pierre http://blog.thepimp.net | http://www.libgd.org
