So you are right to say that a brought support for this > needs to be there in the PEAR organization. I would not say broad support (which an analog value) but rather a yes or no answer (which is a digital value). Nobody wants to spend time in an effort that in the end will not be accepted and that could be sorted from the beginning.

I think that can be stalled forever in the bureacracy. You need to be patient, but personally I am not expecting nor relying on a decision soon. Metabase development will go on no matter what comes out of it. > I will also start a poll on the metabase egroup site.
