Or did I misunderstand something? > yeah, frankly I was waiting for at least one voice for these extensions to exclude them from the vote (and I was also explicitly sending a reminder for this RFC last week). And I anyway didn't believe them to be voted "yes" because it's mentioned they're going to be supported. Now interbase and pdo are excluded from the voting, as per multiple requests. It's not 21:00 CET yet, so hereby the voting is started. Thanks. Anatol.
