Thanks for the reply Remi! I'm switching the thread to php-devel (from devel). Responses inline below.

Bundling them is an interesting idea. It'll save some time, and it'll make it easier to do the packaging initially.

I actually just discovered the PHP packaging tips page last night that mentions a bit about the autoloaders. It might be helpeful to include the information from https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/PHP/PackagingT ips in https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:PHP, or possibly link to the former from the latter. I had only discovered the latter link when making my first few packages, so knowing about the tips would have been nice. If anyone would like to help me, this page tracks the packages that are needed: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ampache
