phpChecklist

UPDATE, 2007/12/07 8:00 AM: Make sure to check the comments, James and Adam offer valuable advice!

For a couple weeks now we kept on saying that we need a checklist of what we need on a server in order to make the site run - now since we setup the neato bonito cluster last week the checklist all of the sudden had a higher priority and I took an hour or so to create that last night.

In the process I used a nifty code snippet by Adam Harvey, to do my PEAR package checking and basically added a loop through get_loaded_extensions() and a shell_exec('cd /foo && svn info') to make it complete. Now season the script with with some CSS, and you have your very own phpChecklist and got yourself some piece of mind.

All this code snippeting and code snippet formatting in VOX is not as trivial as I would like - so anyway, I am sure you get an impression of what I mean.
