| Chapter 3. Support
This chapter describes, how you can get support, if you have questions concerning PEAR. The mailing listsOverviewAs in most other open-source projects, the support is done via mailing lists. In our case, we currently have five PEAR related mailing lists:
The first four lists are intended to help you, if you have questions. Please read below to get to know, what list fits to your needs. The CVS commit list is intended for people that are contributing to PEAR: All commits to our revision control system (CVS) are send to this list. You can subscribe to the PEAR mailing lists via this website. The General mailing listThe PEAR general mailing list is the mailing list, where you ask, if you have a question about installing PEAR, using a certain PEAR package etc. The list is no support forum for question concerning the usage of PHP. Please use php-general@lists.php.net instead. The Developers mailing listAs the name already tells you, this list is the place where the developers of PEAR come together to make decisions, to discuss about code and to handle things that are related to this. If you are no developer of PEAR itself, this list is of no real interest for you, unless
The adress for this list is pear-dev@lists.php.net. The documentation mailing listThis list is the place, where all the things concerning the PEAR documentation, the manual etc. are discussed. If you want to help out documenting PEAR packages, don't hesitate to drop a mail there. The QA mailing listPeople being interested in improving the overall quality of PEAR come together on the QA list. The Quality Insurance team is always seeking people that want to help. If you are interested, just sign up and announce yourself on the mailing list. The Webmaster mailing listIf you have found a problem on our website or have a question concerning the site, you can email the guys on pear-webmaster@php.net . |
