Does this mean that MDB aims to support extensions that are specific to DB2?

Sure, I am currently writing php applications which use php's builtin ibm-db2 support through odbc. However there are some DB2-specific extensions which are not included in php's DB2 support. I would like to add this functionality to php, and I am wondering whether PEAR is a proper place to start such a project. Thanks, Tim
