As for TODOs, I agree. They are interesting for developers, so should  
stay in PEAR's documentation directories.

Some time ago, I have proposed moving INSTALL and other user-specific  
documentation back to Horde webroot. It is really hard to find even  
for intermediate sysadmins. Especially when PEAR doesn't have a  
unified simple way for accessing documentation. Like for example "man"  
command for other ordinary applications. But, well... there was no  
support from other devs regarding that :)
