Charles,

A guy in Germany contacted me because he wanted to do the same thing you want to do, and he saw in PickWiki that I had worked with InterCall. He had some questions and we exchanged a few emails. In our discussion, we came to the consensus that (a) the number of functions to port and test was monumental, (b) thread-safety complicated the issue, and (c) there were already established ways of accomplishing the tasks he wanted.

I think most U2 developers choose one of the established methods mentioned in PickWiki's "Accessing U2 from PHP" article.

In spite of that, I believe we (the U2 community) would benefit from yet another U2/PHP solution. Different strokes for different folks. I'm sure the Apache/PHP'er on the fringe of U2 usage would love to have a familiar PDO driver interface. But if you decide to do it, do it for yourself -- most successful popular apps started life solving one man's problem (think of Napster), and open source projects targeted for "the masses" tend to flop.

After reading the article on the IBM web site, developing the PDO driver seems doable. I am curious about something though. There seem to be a gazillion add-ins for PHP. All of the information I have found has been around for years, How come no one has made a U2 add-in for PHP?
