Hi Christoph, It has been a while, and we have a public repo https://github.com/microsoft/mysqlnd_azure available now for the extension source code. I've created the package.xml file and add a brief Readme.txt under folder mysqlnd_azure. Could you help review the code again if any problem? The user name in the package.xml is invalid since I just submitted the php user account form and request is not finished yet. Thanks.
