[wp-hackers] alternative database support

[Alex King]

Forking is part of Open Source - if the core product is (for whatever  
reason) not willing to satisfy needs/requests that people have, they  
can choose to do so themselves. You may not like this and/or disagree  
with what they are talking about doing - that is your right.

All I'm saying is that if the folks that want PostgreSQL/SQLite/etc.  
all work together on an ADOdb port, this work can benefit and be  
leverages by others. I think that having a single fork around  
additional database support is a lot better idea than a fork for each  
database type.

Cheers,
