[Phplib-users] PEAR versus phplib

[Marko K. <Mar...@mc...>]

Hi,

just for being up-to-date: Is there any news about the progress with PEAR
in comparison to phplib? I remember some speed comparisons with MySQL
where phplib's db_mysql.inc eventually turned out to be the winner
concerning performance.

Looking at the PEAR website it looks like they are very active and have a
lot of projects running. But I don't really know how to value that... Just
ignored what happened over there, since I was always very content with my
apps based on phplib and Maxim Derkachevs session4_custom.

Now, looking at the register_globals=off-issue I try to understand whether
it makes sense to migrate to PEAR... Is this community bigger in
comparison to phplib? I am afraid that the number of phplib users
decreases, given the traffic on this list... Maybe I am mistaken, but if
not, so I'd value any helpful comment concerning PEAR and its
perspectives. I don't want to believe everything what is said on their
website, better want to know what phplib's programmers community thinks
about it!

Thanks in advance.

Marko
