PEAR is the Php Extension and Add-on Repository (I think that's the current 
full expansion of the acronym). It contains the DB:: package, which is the most 
widely known piece of PEAR code, but that's not everything. PEAR is definitely 
where things like a SOAP implementation - core functionality that is important 
to many users - should go. IMHO, of course. =)

> Is there a web page about PEAR?

http://pear.php.net/, though it's not terribly informative yet. The code out of 
CVS is your best bet.
