all PEAR packages to php?-pear-* and all Apache packages to ap13-* or
ap2-* respectively. Add new variables to simplify the Makefile
handling. Add CONFLICTS on the old names. Reset revisions of bumped
packages. ap-php will now depend on the default Apache and PHP version.
All programs using it have an implicit option of the Apache version
as well.
OK from jlam@ and adrianp@.
developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.
PHP extension for managing templates and variable interpolation
FastTemplate is a port of the Perl CGI::FastTemplate module to PHP, which
is a very fast implementation of templates using simple variable
interpolation.
Templates are very useful for CGI programming, because adding HTML to your
PHP code clutters your code and forces you to do any HTML modifications.
By putting all of your HTML in seperate template files, you can let a
graphic or interface designer change the look of your application without
having to bug you, or let them muck around in your PHP code.
