Splitting PECL out of PEAR in terms of the website (*) will improve
PECL's position a lot: Right now people consider it to be a subset of
PEAR (the PECL packages are really pretty much hidden in PEAR atm) and
thus don't attach too much importance to it. This is a bad thing since
PECL is one of the coolest things since bread came sliced and it will
(IMO) be very important for the future development of PHP.
(*) As already said before, I don't agree that having a completely
independent website is a good idea. But I actually like James' idea of
pecl.php.net being equivalent (== same machine, same codebase) to
pear.php.net but with a slightly different logo/color scheme and only
showing the PECL packages.
