Description:
------------
We should make it a lot easier to find channel server software, if inclusion within pear isn't possible for developers.
But, we should emphasize that people first try and get their package within PEAR - if that isn't feasible, create your own channel.
I'd like to avoid a channel explosion where every channel has only one package... and they're poor quality, or could just as easily have been included within the default channel(s).

What about improving http://pear.php.net/channels/ instead?
Not so much a manual entry but a short cheat sheet type deal.
Things like:
* Channels known by pear
* How to set up a channel server
* How do I discover a channel

I added a section about channel server software to the manual. The channels/ should link to the manual, though.

I fixed it in cvs and pearweb_channels release 1.15.0. /channels/ now contains links to the manual.
