I haven't seen much activity around it recently. Horde (http://horde.org/) is planning on using the database modules; to that end, I committed some fixes to php4 cvs that lets the pear stuff run, at least for basic operations. I have a test script that gets results from a mysql database which works, at least - I haven't done extensive testing yet. If you can grab those files out of cvs, I'd be very interested in how they work for you, and I'm perfectly willing to stomp out any remaining bugs. Also, there are a few people working on javadoc-like parsers, which PEAR has (sort-of?) adopted as a coding standard for inline documentation. We're also busy adapting all the stuff we have in the various Horde code libraries into PEAR-style classes, complete with inline documentation. -chuck -- I won't die for Fernando Poo
