=============================
PEAR starts rethinking itself
=============================

:Description:
    Today Alexey Borzov started a huge fire on the internal PEAR mailinglist,
    where he so kind of merged all basic problems PEAR has together into 1
    email and through it out into the community. PEAR currently starts to
    think over it's whole concept and I hope it will not break during this. If
    it doesn't, it will be a very much better PEAR afterwards.

Today Alexey Borzov started a huge fire on the internal PEAR mailinglist,
where he so kind of merged all basic problems PEAR has together into 1 email
and through it out into the community. PEAR currently starts to think over
it's whole concept and I hope it will not break during this. If it doesn't, it
will be a very much better PEAR afterwards.

So, why am I telling you all out there, that there is something cooking in
PEAR and do ot give you a link to read what PEAR internally thinks? There are
mainly 2 reasons for this:

a) People are getting more an more lazy, so, get of your ass and search for
it! ;-P 

b) No, just kidding, but it would not be good, to read what we talk
internally, by the question I would like to give you here.
**
So, all you PEAR users/knowers/lovers/haters and everyone else, feel free you
give your comment here on what you like on PEAR, what you would like to change
on PEAR, what your experience is with PEAR and what you think should PEAR
be.**

I beg everyone, just to state your own oppinion and not to comment on
otherones comments (as it's mostly done on mailinglists).

  well, I'm a PEAR lover as this is helping me alot in a big project i'm
  involved . I just want more accesible documentation,not just the inline
  phpdoc tags !!! I want PEAR to be either host independent not just "a
  feature" available to a few serious webhosts . Talking 'bout lazy ppl huh ?
  Well .. how are the package developers if they don't provide strong info's
  about what a package cand (or can't) do. Geeky things are not popular usualy
  because the non-techno-freaks simply don't get the point of that hardness .
  Another thing I don't like is the presence of early developed packages
  (alpha stage) that are just upgraded veeery slow ! . Very restrictive
  politic to package acceptance is again a serious problem that has many
  answers and it's not the point of my post .. I'll just be quick and say :
  "just make it more accesible "
