From the PEAR blog today comes a new post talking about the introduction of a much requested option when accessing the PEAR source code - SVN over CVS.

As part of the PEAR2 project we are making that happen. I'm happy to announce that we now have an SVN repo ready for testing. Web access at http://svn.pear.php.net with the SVN url being http://svn.pear.php.net/repo.

The access isn't quite available yet, but it will be as soon as they figure out how they want people to be able to access the parts of the PEAR2 source code. Keep an eye on the PEAR Blog for the latest.
