I think a larger problem is that package maintainers are even faced with the problem of having to support multiple DB API's. With the introduction of PHP5's interfaces I think a good idea would be to standardize a basic DB API and require DB packages to implement said interfaces so package maintainers can depend on a unified API (arguments about who is faster at what aside).
that is why MDB2 is moving towards the PDO API
Also, IIRC, MDB/MDB2 both have DB compliant interfaces. Though I could be wrong as it's been a while since I've looked into the other abstraction layers.
MDB does .. the MDB2 one is severely broken and I currently have no plans of continueing its development since I never ever received a single bit of feedback on any of the wrappers for DB I wrote. regards, Lukas
