Hello Rainer,

A few of us have been planning to move the pdflib extension into PECL
(http://pecl.php.net) for a little while now; it sounds like an excellent time
to make this move, because it will allow you to make supplemental releases
outside of the PHP 5 core release cycle.

Here is a possible release plan:

1/  Move the current code into PECL
2/  Make a release (so that people may choose to use the code they are used
to)
3/  Merge your new code and bump the extension version to the next major (eg:
from 1.x to 2.0)
4/  Make a release
5/  Update and make additional releases whenever you like

How does that sound to you?

>     - disables VIRTUAL_DIR support (use SerachPath instead)
>     - disables CHECK_OPEN_BASEDIR checks

This doesn't sound too hot for shared hosters.
