 Helpful informations can be found at the PHP project’s pages [1], along
 with a HOWTO [2] regarding the migration to dev-lang/php.
 The old-style PHP packages (dev-php/php, dev-php/php-cgi,
 dev-php/mod_php, dev-php/PECL-*, and older dev-php/PEAR-* packages) will
 be package.masked on Wednesday, 19 April 2006, and removed from the
 Portage tree about a month later.
 
 Just wanted to say a collective thank-you for the long tedious work you've 
 done with php.
 
 Thanks guys!
 


Me too, this was an awesome job. I use these packages on torrents.g.o
and it works great. Thanks for all the hard work. :-)
