I hate to use the word (am a converted asp programmer - halleluiah !) but .. that would seem to be a bit like ODBC. Does that mean we could have "drivers" that can be matched to a db AND its version (eg mySQL3.2, mySQL4.0) which is one of the nightmares of deploying ODBC (eg recently Interbase) its starting to tickle me wiki's ;-) Pete Lukas Smith wrote:

Not exactly, but sort of. At the next LinuxTag on July 10th there is a meeting about the future of database extensions where one of the big topics is how to make it easier for users to switch databases etc. I will be there as a the "PEAR guy" to make sure that we can make use of the resulting work in PEAR. The resulting work might result in a drastic reduction in the workload that PEAR DB would have to do. Regards, Lukas
