Moin Lukas,
Now, PECL has a couple of CLA'd modules already. I don't like
them being there, and you have stated your own opinion loud and
clear. I think we should be looking for some way to separate out
CLA'd PECL modules to elsewhere but leave the PECL structure in
place for those modules. It's important to offer at least that
much, because as long as the licensing is sound, CLA'd or not
CLA'd doesn't impact end users - just contributors.
Well thanks to a separate PEAR channel, we have all the
infrastructure easily setup to have a different place for users to
pick up the code. Or are you more concerned about the CVS, than
the distribution of the packages?
Eh? No, I'm concerned about binaries in the Windows version. We just
don't have a working pecl install option. If anyone wants CVS they
can use cvs or tortoisecvs or whatever, but that's irrelevant to
users...
Well Greg has long been talking about adding the ability to bundle
binaries in PECL packages. Not sure if this is included in the next
generation installer Pyrus. Again, I personally do not think that the
distribution we ship would be so radically different, so this would
not be an issue that would increase in importance. However sure,
making it easy to get binaries to people who cannot compile would be a
great thing for PECL in general.
regards,
Lukas
