If so, IMHO the correct place is here. Also I know > that guys from other abstractions layers track this list. Not yet. Until there is a definite go for the merge process, I don't think it makes sense to commit anything to PEAR now. Now, it is the time to make a proof of concept: wrap PEAR-DB API around Metabase and demonstrate that it works while it can be expanded to handle Metabase features that PEAR-DB does not yet provide. What would help from your side is some conformance tests that you can run on PEAR-DB API so we can validate that once it wraps around Metabase it still works as intended, or else we will never be sure if merger will really work and may slip fundamental flaws and limitations that may be too late when we realize them.
