I do not understand that statement, the last time someone actively did something to improve the extension was back in january 2015, which is portability to PHP7 and the cross Firebird support that seems to be in this extension. However I do not see any contribution or patches that helps maintain it as you so speak of, and again, I do not want that extra burden on mine or my co-contributor's shoulders having to maintain an extension none of us uses or have more in-depth knowledge about, that you must be able to understand. >If you pull firebird > then I am definitely dropping PHP7 and sticking with a working PHP5 > infrastructure!

I meant it can be used instead of ext/interbase, in case interbase gets removed. -- regards, Kalle Sommer Nielsen kalle@php.net
