[nycphp-talk] mercilessly trashing PHP over on slashdot

Pear was great back in the time, in the old days of PHP 3 with pear we had
ORMs, templates engines, debug tools, logging, caching and a lot of more
tools. The problem was if you wanted to include your new component in the
pear repository, that was pretty hard since it was a very closed and
elitist community. The benefit of that was that the components were real
good and very useful.

Composer is great, is like the new pear, you can find almost anything in
packagist, good components and also a lot of shit. That is good because you
can have more components and a bigger community but the sad part is that
most of the components are zipped shit (same problem that node.js users
have with npm).

Anyways, for me openness and variety is a good thing. These new wave based
in interoperable and reusable components between different frameworks is
great, is a good step in the evolution of the PHP ecosystem and his
community (not just the language).

Regards
