PHPTAL has been accepted as official PEAR package!
http://pear.php.net/package/HTML_Template_PHPTAL
The good things:
* It's been reviewed by PEAR team and they'll be keeping eye on package's
quality.
* It's got access to pear.php.net facilities, like bug tracker, roadmaps,
releases archive, official installer, etc. I haven't prepared PEAR
releases yet, but you can start using bug tracker now:
http://pear.php.net/bugs/report.php?package=HTML_Template_PHPTAL
* It will be hosted in php.net SVN repository.
The bad news is that PEAR requires renaming of package from just "PHPTAL"
to "HTML_Template_PHPTAL", which means change of all class names!
Since I'm not too keen on having 3 times longer class name prefix, I've
decided to use PHP 5.3 namespaces (PEAR2 package) for official PEAR
releases. In PHP5.3 you can hide those long prefixes by aliasing
namespaces.
Of course I realize 5.3 isn't available to everyone yet, so I'm going to
keep current backwards-compatible distribution maintained in parallel
until PHP 5.3 becomes commonplace.
Questions? Suggestions?
