Subject: Re: [PHP-DEV] Move old (or non-mainstream) extensions to PECL before beta 3
From: wez@thebrainroom.com ("Wez Furlong")

The point is that there is no need to waste time moving
things around if there is no build infrastructure in place.
Having these extensions in php-src/ext is no different to
having them in pecl/ except that they currently build under
ext, but would require work to make them build under pecl.

They are not hurting anyone where they are, so I suggest
that it would be better to put the effort into the distro
building script first, and then (if you're bored ;-) move
these not-so-golden extensions into pecl.
