For PEAR, it doesn't matter what the PHP binary name is, and since 1.0 will be co-released with PHP 4.3, PEAR will follow whatever PHP does. I agree with Zeev's stand on this. We (php-dev) are a bit too ego-centric if we think that it is reasonable to make lots of problems for existing CGI users just because we have some stubborn notion of what the CLI binary name should be. Ease up folks, and think about the users for a bit. IMHO some people are just a bit too eager breaking stuff around here. - Stig -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
