Perhaps I didn't explain myself enough... the way that I thought of it was a totally separate module, derived from PEAR::DB. It would contain a subset of the functions that PEAR::DB has, the ones that are necessary to do DB work -- connecting, querying, getting error messages, quoting strings, maybe a bit more -- but basically a "Lite" version of PEAR::DB, with a fixed set of functions. And we wouldn't add more, unless there was something really important... it would be for faster include()-ing. The whole idea of this is faster include()-ing, not necessarily picking and choosing which functions you want... because really, if you're including the code, you might as well put the functions in the class because the code's already there. --Jason
