It's a win-win situation. I do really appreciate the effort. Let me apologize, I didn't mean to belittle your, or anyone else', work and contributions. That's a miscommunication on my part. Further more, it's great that PEAR offers a DBAL which uses the features of current PHP versions. :-) I wanted to say that generally IMHO (very humble ;-)) MDB3 would have been the correct move. And if that move entails that development of MDB2 ceases, then that would make sense to me as well. I didn't imply or expect you to maintain two of those beasts. My "easy" referred to creating the new package MDB3 by replacing the "2" with "3". To mark a clean BC break between versions. Till
