Hi, I would like to publish a new extension on PECL, the proposed name is mysqlnd_ngen (where ngen stands for next gen) and it would contain mysqlnd, mysqli and pdo (forked from php and bundled in one extension with building scripts that will prepare the 3 extension builds which the user can load into php instead of the original version in the repo) with a bunch of modifications that Oracle (Where I work and on behalf of which I'm submitting the request) is providing and that are expected to be used from hopefully community and certainly corporate users. (Like, support for specific auth mechanism like kerberos, or support for high availability, topology discover etc).
I can login to PECL (fjanisze) and I saw that before submitting a new package request I should inquiry this list for comments, so here I'm, please comment for further details or suggestions on different names - The maintainer of the repo would be me and the extension will be up to date with php-8.0. Thanks.
