Yes, I remember the discussion.

Yes, I know as well, I think I was one of the first who asked to take the
snapshot into CVS to have a better control of what is going on, though I
am definitely not a phplib-developer.

The ONLY thing which made me nervous was that the announcing post from Joe
which started this thread didn't give that information that one has to use
phplib-stable. Someone reading only that post, who didn't follow the list
and wouldn't know about the final decision to use the stable tree, would
probably try to get the sources from phplib (the developer tree). Don't
you think?

That's all what I wanted to note.

OK, I better stop spamming everybody on this list with my useless remarks
about this. I don't want to blame anybody for something! I found the
sources myself, understood why it had to be done this way to keep
everything consistent, since that's what was the intention: to get rid of
this uncomfortable snapshots.

If nobody else was irritated than I shut up anyway. Never mind. I think we
are all happy that phplib develops and got more alive during the past
year. Good to see that finally CVS keeps control over the sources again.
