Thank you Nikita for the pull request for this. With all the respect
to PEAR project and people behind it, maybe the PEAR itself should be
added to some sort of recognition page in the manual for their
involvement and work on the first installer of PHP code and initial
move into code reuse, open source PHP libraries, and all that. As time
went forward, Composer took over the role of such installer in PHP
community.

I do not like composer. A problem I have encountered, a project specifies a version for a dependency.

That version has vulnerability, developer fixed it in newer release, but composer keeps pulling in the older version because that is what composer provides.

And it can be the dependency of a dependency of a dependency.

I do not like Composer.

Adding a "recognition page" while cutting PEAR off also seems, well, slimy.
