### PHP requirements and configure options
PHP extensions published on the PECL archive contain a `package.xml` (or `package2.xml`) file describing the supported PHP versions and the options that can be used to compile it.
When we add support for a new PHP extension, and when a new version of a PHP extension is released, we have to check those constraints.
It's a rather tedious taks, so I developed a project that lets you easily check those constraints: you can find it at https://mlocati.github.io/pecl-info ([here](https://github.com/mlocati/pecl-info) you can find its source code).
