Not sure where it belongs (as this is up to the developers) but this issue is showing up elsewhere too, like the memcached extension is now maintained at Github. I think there are others too. But if something is listed at pecl.php.net then it's a PECL extension, right? In which case, listing it within the PHP Manual is fine. So I think the question is more "Is it a PECL extension?" versus "Where is the source code hosted?" although this can easily be debated. Regards, Philip
