Hi, msql was obsolete back in 1999 when I was still using it. I doubt many people have touched it in this century, I don't think you need to move it to PECL. I think it should just be cvs deleted, and a note added that as of 5.2.0 we no longer support msql.
Well, moving to PECL without creating a PECL project is virtually the same. Also, you know that the approved policy is to _move_ and not to _delete_. So I think one more dead/obsolete/unsupported module won't hurt PECL.
CVS delete will keep it for past versions and archeological research. I don't see msql ext ever being needed again and I don't think we should treat PECL as a garbage dump. Edin
