Hi,

The other XML_* and most of Services* are not that usefull for php5
packages, we may consider to stick them to php4 only and do some house
keeping commit only, no?

XML_DTD and XML_Beautifier can (in most cases) be replaced by DOM.
Services_Delicious still is useful and Services_Ebay is PHP5-only.

Bleh, anyway, bad words I used..

XML_XUL => PHP4
XML_XUL2 (perhaps) => PHP5 -> OO wrapper, quick and clean.

+1, perhaps XML_XUL could be good but has to be rewritten to use php5.
So yep, keep them to house commit I say.

I must agree with Stephan here, at least in the regards of the Services
packages, it's good to have a coherent interface tho those services, even
tho they can be done easily in PHP 5 and all that (it can always be made
easier with user land code).

Plus I'd say it would be interesting to have XML_XUL still around, as a
PHP 5 package, I actually have a interested fellow that wants to take over
that package, I asked him to contact Stephan but I guess that did not
happen, I'll nudge him again.
