I wasn't idle since the release of PEAR 1.9.5 but did a bit of work on my PEAR packages.
Net_WebFinger version 0.4.0 now supports the final WebFinger RFC 7033. On pfefferle's request I made both Net_WebFinger and its dependency XML_XRD available on packagist and thus installable via composer: pear/net_webfinger and pear/xml_xrd
Some minutes ago I released version 0.4.0 of the OpenID package. It fixes 6 bugs and adds a new feature.
