Hiyall and Wez in particular,

That would have been nice :-)

I wouldn't mind but I don't know when I can find some time. Is there
some documentation available for the packaging process? I couldn't find
a clear pointer on pecl.php.net.

> Let me know if you need an account for the PECL site.

I'm not sure if I now have cvs permissions for dbx in the pecl folder, I
used to have them for the /ext folder. Username is mboeren. Anything
else I need to package dbx for pecl (and maintain it) would be
appreciated too.

Ciao, Marc.

     Please note this: This was only removed from PHP 5.1-dev (HEAD),
     it still exists in the PHP_4_4 branch.. And AFAIK, there are no
     releases of PHP 5.1 (other than betas) out yet? :)

     Plus it does have a package.xml. Added in 2004/03/24..

     --Jani

     p.s. I thought Derick handled the CVS stuff..also the access. :)
