Re: RFC: PECL versioning

Hi Stas,

That doesn't seem very useful for me, since the $id would be the one for one file, and since CVS has individual versions for each file, that wouldn't tell us much about the rest of the extension, so for any practical purpose it's not better than version constant. I think having version in phpinfo() is good, but having CVS IDs doesn't make a lot of sense for extensions having more than one file.

OK so that needs to be more of a 'you may also use...' than an out and out rule. I put that because a high percentage of PECL devs are already using it, presumably so that they can keep track of *exactly* when something broke (in bug reports). It's more useful to the developer than to the user. Thanks for the feedback. - Steph
