The existing PEAR packages are still mostly written using PHP 4 and the 
new releases just aren't there. Some packages need to be run with the 
notification for deprecated features turned off. I use some of their 
package for convenience (HTML_Form, HTML_Table, Image_GraphViz and 
Spreadsheet_Excel_Writer) but there are no new releases, no updates, 
nothing. The same applies to other packages that I sometimes use 
(Console_Getopt, Date, Log). Does anyone have more info about PEAR? Is 
the project that was lambasted as PHP CPAN really going belly up? Having 
such a repository would be more than useful, in my opinion it was a 
mistake to standardize error handling and all those things that are in 
the PEAR package.
