As it was mentioned, it was not decided that mysql ext should be completly
removed at 5.6, my personal opinion is that it should be pushed po PECL at
this release with all the bells and whistells warning everyone that
extension is depricated and will be removed soon (read: next release - be
it 5.7 or 6.0). I belive that leaving everything as is right now will be
sending a message that projects like Wordpress can halt the progress of the
language development and block the decisions like removal of the mysql ext.
But thats for the sake of the slowpokes that still didn't adopt the mysqli
(moving from mysql to mysqli is not really that hard...) or moved to PDO.
As far as i'm concered personaly, mysql ext died a long ago for me (was
using mysqli since first stable releases).
My 0.02$
P.S. For gods sakes, did I just saw someone still writing code based on
mysql ext while it is marked as depricated? It is known for years now that
it is being nuked - frankly I'm surprised it wasn't deleted a long time ago..
