I've committed the necessary code for generating REST files from existing releases/packages/categories/maintainers, and attached is a patch that will enable dynamic generation/removal of REST files as a normal part of the website maintenance. It adds a miniscule amount of post-processing to the modification of data distributed by pearweb, but provides a tremendous benefit the rest of the time, as users with PEAR 1.4.0 will not tax the server nearly as much. At most, a single download will occur for each user/file combination, unless the file is modified. After that, only header checks will be performed. I suspect this will alleviate a part of the burden on pearweb, and will speed up the client-side as well.

Please be aware that you cannot reliably store any data inside the
document root, because the cron job that updates the website will drop
everything that it does not know about, which is basically everything
that does not come from cvs.php.net.

so... can it be made to ignore the public_html/rest directory?
