How should we understand that? Too small to actually take care of it?
With the risk to repeat myself, the goal is to have a long term
working extension with maintainer(s). An extension without
maintainers, especially DB related extensions (or service specific
extension) will slowly die within a couple of years if nothing is
done.
Let forget PDO for now, that's not the point (even if a working
firebird support for PDO would rock).
Cheers,
