Well, I know librians will love the YAZ extension. I suggest to move the documentation in a new part in the PHP Manual.

I donīt see any improvement if it is hidden in the PEAR docs. -Egon -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
