So ? I didn't see any C code from Zak either. If all we are doing right
now is speculating on the creation of a PHP based 'prototype' of this
MySQL-only abstraction thing, why is it more interesting than a existing
package like PEAR::DB ?

Talk is just that - talk. The weird part is that Zak probably know about
PEAR::DB and he might even know about Stig's plan on writing a C port of
a stable version of it. Maybe I'm wrong, but I just don't feel very good
about all this duplication of efforts and even more about a abstraction
class _just_ for MySQL.
