Hi!
Thanks Clay, I will have a look at this ASAP. I am currently on vacation.
I had a small mail conversation with clay, and his project is looking very great. I installed PMA via his pearified channel without problems and think this is a very nice addition to spreading PMA. Mostly because it makes updating so incredible easy (if people have server access, that is).
So IMHO we should do all things possible to support the PEARify process. Though I think there's not much to do for us apart from notifying Clay upon new releases. And we might want to think about only shipping that config.inc.dist instead of the PHP file...
Regards, Garvin
