Lukas Smith has a summary of what kinds of things were discussed at the impromptu PDO meeting during the php|tropics conference.

Well maybe I should not blog on this until we have an official summary, but due to the fact that very little changes where decided and that my proposed summary has such a hard time hiding my disappointment, I think we will probably not get an official summary any time soon (or rather soon enough for such an impatient person as I am).

The bulk of the changes is that there will be a function that will generate a driver specific PDO DSN from an array. I have provided the PECL list with a list of keys we support on the PEAR abstraction layers in the hopes that the end result will be compatible.

He continues on, talking more about some of the disappointing things that came out of the meetings - like plans for more changes. There's also talk of some method naming issues, the separation of results and statements in the API, and setting/getting attributes.
