Hi guys,

I am kinda curious about this project because I was going to work on something similar to this. My idea was a DB layer in PHP taht would keep any of the SQL out of the PHP core. Something the way ZoomStats handles it, but the main differences would be:

1. Primarely XML based so it can also be PHP-independent

2. Completely a separated package, easy to integrate in the way PEAR works

3. No parsing freaks with SQL whatsoever, leave SQL intact the way DBA likes.

These are a few ideas I am precise about.

If, in this forum, hangman or my old good friend Rune could explain what your idea is like, I would join. Otherwise, even if this is not quite what I need, I would join anyway to contribute somehow. (But I'd go for my project then anyway).

This would be helpful to you also for the documentation reasons.
