If I take the existing php odbc code and add the ibm-db2 specific
extensions, what are the chances of this making it into the main php
distribution as a new extension ( ext/ibmdb2 ) ? Is it a good idea to
maintain a separate cvs tree on sf.net so it gets some testing first?
I am looking to create something similar to oracle's php extension.
Thanks,
