Just to throw another spanner in the works - the PEAR License isn't 
compatible with the GPL. You bundle PEAR DB with the app (you're not so

That of course presumes you're going to use the GPL as your license!

I have the same problem with WPMU:

WordPress uses the ezsql library from http://php.justinvincent.com/ and 
it's awfully nice and simple :)

Happy coding!

Donncha.
