This is all very new to me and I've tried looking at php.net but wasn't able to locate any instructions for submission so I'm writing to the dev list for further assistance. So, where do I go from here? How long is the usual submission process?? -- Dale --- ## #21050 — Jasper Bryant-Greene — 2005-12-06T05:28:25+00:00 URL: https://externals.io/message/21049#21050 · In reply to: #21049 It would probably help if you mentioned what the module is.

Once it's been approved, you can apply for a CVS and PECL account, and create a package entry at pecl.php.net (optionally storing the package in CVS). -Sara ----- Original Message ----- From: "D .
