    - Please put up .phps files of your code
    - You linked the apidocs twice

    It would be great if you could add an example on how to use the class.

    Actually you can find examples here:
    http://apidoc.digg.com/ToolkitsServicesDigg

    But I would like to see the source files as well, and I didn't look at the full source yet, but is it PHP4 or only PHP5 ? Might be good to point that out in the proposal :)

    - I've linked to .phps files.
    - I linked to apidocs twice because PEPr continues to be broken (for some reason it's "validating" URL's that are empty).
    - Example code on the toolkits homepage as well as the numerous phpt files.
    - Package is PHP 5.1+ as it uses array type hinting.

    Very nice, I really like this package :) Good job Joe!

    - If you really want to use the PHP License, you should use version 3.01, not 3.0. But I would recommend the New BSD License.

    - PHP 5 packages should use PEAR_Exception, not PEAR_Error.
  • Alexey Borzov  [2007-04-22 09:51 UTC]

    The package may not have HTTP_Request as a required dependency since HTTP_Request is not a E_STRICT compatible package, see
    http://pear.php.net/pepr/pepr-proposal-show.php?id=419

    Error handling is invalid too, as Mark pointed out.

    Some more comments:
    - BSD license like in Digg.phps and package.xml would be fine
    - I doubt that "PHP versions 4 and 5" (at least in Digg.phps) is correct ;-)
    - package.xml still depends on HTTP_Request
    - please remember that version 0.0.2 is not valid for the first release (needs to be 0.1.0)

    1.) I mentioned in my update that this is being reviewed by our legal department. So, while you and I both agree BSD is fine, Digg.com, Inc.'s legal department might prefer the Apache license or one of the other licenses outlined as accepted by the PEAR Group. They're on notice and it will be rectified before the initial release and will be one of the allowed licenses (at this point, most likely BSD).

    2.) I've removed HTTP_Request from the dependencies (though this is just in our repository for now).

    3.) I'll up it to 0.1.0 when I initially release it. Until then I'm using the < 0.1.0 for iterations caused by the proposal process.
