I'm preparing to release another PHP C extension.  I would like to do
it as correctly as possible, but i have some questions.

1) Is there a better place to ask these questions?  ie, is there a
list or forum for discussing 3rd party extensions?

2) Is there any standard place for putting (or listing) 3rd party C
extensions to php?   My first thought is to place it on sourceforge,
but how do I let people know it is available?

3) Is PEAR setup to handle C extensions?  Or only php code?  The
documentation I've seen is unclear on this point, but as I see only
php code in /pear, I assume the latter. Can someone say definitively?

4) Is there a standard process for creating documentation for
extension API's?  I've seen mention of the "proto" keyword and some
vague references to a "doc/genfuncsummary script" in the
CODING_STANDARDS document distributed with php.  However, that script
does not appear to be distributed with the source.  Can I get access
to this, or must I roll my own system?  What do others do?

Thanks for any help.  Please send replies to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and cc the
list if u like.

ps, the extension is a simple templating system similar to
FastTemplate but much faster and with a couple extra features.
