When someone has patches to commit, I don't think the attitude should be "...if we could (either) resurrect the development...". Someone is trying to do that! PHP development needs to get better about on-boarding new developers. I've submitted a patch to the docs before, and it took months to be applied. This type of experience actively discourages new developers. And the PHP dev mailing list is filled with "if only someone would submit patches" comments from the current developers. > > One of the current PHP developers should spend some time spotting valuable patches, and helpful new contributors, because if all they do is bring onboard 5 new developers per year, that will accomplish more for PHP than any code they themselves could write. agree. unfortunately I can't really do more about the issue than bumping the thread so maybe somebody both with the knowledge of pdo internals and some spare time can actually review the PR and make it possible for Guilherme to be a regular contributor. --089e011838ea3c287604dbcbcd53--
