Publishing in PECL

Have you heard about PIE?

PECL is now deprecated. 🥧 PHP Installer for Extensions (PIE) is the replacement for PECL. We recommend publishing your extension using PIE instead.

A single suggested reason why you might apply for a PECL account:

No accounts will be accepted for new PECL packages. Accounts will only be accepted for new maintainers for existing PECL packages.

If you are developing a new extension, you cannot add it to PECL, as it is deprecated.

Please follow the instructions to add your extension to the 🥧 PIE ecosystem: PIE for Extension Maintainers.

You do not need an account if you want to download, install and/or use PECL packages.

Before filling out this form, you must write the public pecl-dev@lists.php.net mailing list and:

Please confirm the reason for this PECL account request:

	I have already discussed the topic of maintaining an existing PECL extension on the pecl-dev@lists.php.net mailing list, and we determined it's time for me to have a PECL account.
	I would like to submit a new extension to PECL.
	I desire this PECL account for another reason.
