Sterling has a good point that sqlite is something that could really boost PHP. Currently, the only way to ensure that it is a standard feature is to enable it by default. Sad but true.
My main misgiving with it being enabled by default is that it will make it harder for me to publish releases of the extension between releases of PHP. For the reasons that Sterling has suggested, I'd like to see the sqlite recommended as a default (but don't mind if it isn't). I'd also like it to be upgradable via the pear mechanism. Currently this would mean building it as a shared extension by default. This last point is something that should be considered for the other core extensions (except ext/standard) that will eventually be pickled. (I know Derick has some negative views on building things shared by default; I'll let him speak of those when he finds the time). --Wez. > This is a good synopsis of some of my feelings.
