Do we have a buildserver (cruisecontrol/phpundercontrol) or otherwise maybe I could start by looking in to this project.

When we have build server we should make it package the product(log4php) for pear automatically and maybe deploy it to a pear repository as a aplha/beta/something. We should also make it available standalone (no pear) as many people are still confined to the hosting providers whims.

I think we should allow installation of log4php through the PEAR installer.

A typical installation could be:

$ sudo pear channel-discover pear.apache.org
$ sudo pear install apache/log4php

While upgrading to latest stable release would be:

$ sudo pear upgrade apache/log4php

Utilizing installation through the PEAR installer is one of many ways to improve distribution and usage of log4php.

Before going into this direction we need to know:

1) Is there already a PEAR channel available under the Apache umbrella?
2) If not, is it possible to setup?

If the server side setup of a PEAR channel for apache packages is solved we can add PEAR packaging as a build task.
