Some unfortunate news today - Greg Beaver, maintainer of the pear.chiaraquartet.net PEAR channel server has fallen on some bad luck. Some how, the entire database for it was wiped out and Greg can't quite figure out when/how.

Somehow, I managed to erase the entirety of pear.chiaraquartet.net's database, although I have no idea how or when. In other words, all developers, release history, packages were wiped. Needless to say, I am a wee bit pissed off. Until I can find a decent backup, I will reconstruct the entire thing from scratch.

If you have any information that would help him rebuild this resource, please let him know - I know he'll appreciate it.
