Plenty of things couldn't exist without PHP. That doesn't mean that PHP needs to hold still for their sake, or have it's development beholden to their creators. But even if we lived in some Bizaro world where such was the case, there's still the point that John sees no issues with PDO and ADODB coexisting. He's clearly been aware of PDOs path for quite a while now. Here was John's viewpoint on PDO seven months ago: http://phplens.com/phpeverywhere/?q=node/view/1
It's been stated a couple times, but I'll throw my voice into this since you seem to have not captured the meaning of other people's messages:
PDO and ADODB have different goals.
If you don't like PDO, don't use it.
If you don't want to test PDO, don't test it.
If John doesn't want to include PDO support in ADODB, that's his prerogative. That wasn't the path he proposed, but if he changes his mind to that extent, then that's a problem between you and him, not between you and us.
