Why there is nobody taking care of the bugs or sending patches? That's why I doubt that these extensions are widely used. And if there is users, they are in controlled environments like dedicated servers or intranet and can then install them from PECL. If that makes you feel better, I can make releases in PECL and post something about their status. > Removing them is removing a key feature our user base experts > to find.

I don't see them as key features, and I doubt the PDO support will be any better if no one actually care about them. It is even worst in the case of firebird as even the firebird author(s) clearly stated what they think about PDO and that they are not going to help (that's what I understand).
