Either the extention you want comes with PHP, or you get it from PEAR. I
don't think that's too non-inuitive. :)

Of course, no matter what we decide, there is nothing to stop people from
*not* contributing their code into the main PEAR repository. Not all Perl
modules are in CPAN.

Or for starting their own PEAR-ish repository ... PHP Library of Unlisted
Modules = PLUM ;)

So no matter what some non-intuitiveness will eventually creep in. I just
think that'll be a by-product of PHP becoming so popular.
