No, phpexplore is not dead. I've a big todolist, but other projects kill my time :-(
Well, I've restored the download area with the last version. It's gpg signed, so you can check the integrity of the package.
If you have problems while installing phpexplore, please let me know so that I can correct the bugs.
A new developper has join the crew : welcome Calimero !
As a consequence a new version will soon (?) come, almost rewritten, with new features (who said he wanted a 'tar' functionnality ?)...
In the meanwhile, if you have problems installing/using the current version, drop me a note !
