What do these 3, 3 letter words mean?

One big mess in the PHP community!!

The problem is the people against the CLA are thinking with emotion and not rational thought. The main argument? CLA's are worthless and hold no legal ground....

You know what I say to that? WHO CARES!!! If a stupid signed piece of paper gets the developers from major databases providing more direct assistance, support and debugging for PHP database drivers then it doesn't matter if the piece of paper is legal or not.

This reminds me of a statement from one of my favorite stupid movies.. "Tommy Boy", when he goes off about "warranties". A warranty gives you a sense of trust, it makes you feel good inside but it doesn't stop your car from breaking down it just gives you some room to wiggle your finger, raise your voice and hopefully get your money back!

If all a CLA does is give some companies and developers a warm feeling inside SO BE IT, PHP gets drivers designed, tested and built by the people who know the database best THE ONES WHO CODED IT!!!

So what do I say to all you naysayers, GET OVER IT, GET A LIFE AND MOVE ON!!
