Hi Kalle,

I did something similar earlier this year, where I closed 109 bug reports

that pertained to ancient extensions. I made a list of these extensions[1],

along with a list of other extensions that appeared to be abandoned as

well. Perhaps after verifying/updating these lists of unused PECL packages,

we could simply close all bug reports related to them, and remove them

from the dropdown menu of all PECL packages (when reporting a new

bug). PHP 4-only extensions could also be removed from the docs, but

that's a different matter.


-Tom
