MySQL have stated that they will follow what the PHP community accepts, whether or not that includes a CLA. What I was questioning was whether all current PECL extensions implement PHP-only specifications. Since we already have extensions that implement externally established specifications (e.g. XML-RPC), then what is special about PDO (assuming no shared core PDO extension) that would require the spec to be CLA-free? I'm just trying to explore the options here.
