> 1) Clear up my personal confusion between PEAR and PECL :-) 

PECL are binary extensions to PHP.
PEAR is just PHP code, done as class libraries to use in your project. ZF is
more like Pear than it is PECL (if that helps).
 
THANK YOU! :-) 

> 2) Provide simple (and free) mod_rewrite compatiblity between IIS and
Apache using .htaccess files! (and other web-serving solutions)

This has nothing to do with PHP. Mod_rewrite is an Apache thing. There is
ISAPI_Rewrite that is supposed to have some compatibility with mod_rewrite,
but I've never used it, so can't speak from experience. You know you can run
Apache on Windows? If I'm forced to use Windows Server instead of Linux for
PHP, I try to insist that I am allowed to use Apache.
 
I also try :-) But the 'customer' is always right.  I know this is not PHP
related per-say, just having a general moan :-) 

> I don't pretend to understand what is coming with PHP6 

Mostly unicode support (UTF-16), and not much else from what I can tell.
Check this out for a little more info about it:

So, basically, business as usual then :-)
 
Thanks :-)
