MySQL have stated that they will follow what the PHP community accepts, whether or not that includes a CLA. What I was questioning was whether all current PECL extensions implement PHP-only specifications. Since we already have extensions that implement externally established specifications (e.g. XML-RPC), then what is special about PDO (assuming no shared core PDO extension) that would require the spec to be CLA-free? I'm just trying to explore the options here.

A document that all drivers are expected to follow needs to be CLA free or it has no chance of being accepted at php.net. After all SQLite, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Firebird and friends would also be expected to follow those specs.
