Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] cairo-0.2.2 (beta) Released.

Excuse the trolling, I have provided maybe 5 lines of C code to pecl so 
I am sort of speaking out of place here but

Enough is Enough, Pierre I respect you greatly and the work you do for 
php, but the jabs just are not helpful, yes maybe Hartmut jumped past a 
couple steps and should of taken a little more time to post to the list 
but he is just trying to help.

Hartmut, I only wish my C was good enough that I could contribute to 
pecl directly.

I don't know how long you have been on the list but even someone like me 
who trolls this list just to keep track of the pecl world knows that 
extension naming is something that often comes up on the list and is 
heavily discussed, to not post to the list prior is just short of 
disrespectful to the community.

So maybe we can end the finger pointing, discuss what a proper name 
would be in a civilized manner and move on.
