To add to this, I think that if IBM (and others) are so keen on having PHP support their nice databases, they should also realize that it is them that should be nice to *us* and not the other way around. We (as in PHP project) shouldn't have to change the ways how we're dealing with contributions at all. It should be the big companies that actually have a financial interested in PHP supporting their software that open up more and appease us. regards, Derick -- Derick Rethans http://derickrethans.nl | http://ez.no | http://xdebug.org
