Hi,

I've already mentioned this on irc (I wasn't aware that there is a thread
about it), but I don't think that it is a good idea to add this to the list.
Adding this would be a precedence for adding http://phansible.com/ and
every other project which has anything to do with virtualization and php.
That block was originally added to link to MacOSX binaries where it wasn't
available by default nor common for the users to build php for themself:
http://git.php.net/?p=web/php.git;a=commit;h=e2c704cf3885819fb8f06fc5c8814c2e52c4c234
Little by little, we ended up in a situation, where we even list
alternative repos for linux distros where php is already available from the
distributor, and multiple amp stack for the same platform.
Given how much do we suck keeping that list up-to-date, and people are
willing to fight tooth and nail to get listed there, if anything I would
like to see that block to be removed.
What do you think?
