Comment 10 for bug 93603

I agree that there need to be more php5 extensions available. It's worth pointing out, however, that some of these extensions are statically-compiled into the main php5 packages.

Would it be useful to start a wiki page on *all* the extensions that are shipped with the PHP 5 source, and make a table of which ones are part of the main package, which ones are in their own package, and which ones aren't built at all? It'd be an interesting way to prioritize which ones can be built at all.
