Porting WordPress to Drizzle - will I succeed?

Since I can't write C to save my life, I'm attempting to help out in other ways. This has been in the form of donating machine time, helping with the wiki, blog and being a general smartass on #drizzle.

However, where I can provide some help is trying to showcase and see how apps may need to change to work with Drizzle as opposed to MySQL.

I will admit, this may go nowhere as I am consistently swamped with work and a busy social life, but it might be something fun to mess around with to get used to working with Drizzle and possibly come up with something to give back to the community.

I don't expect a huge amount of changes. I think some column types might need to change and definately the DB class (I will be using the native drizzle-php-ext module, even though I believe the mysql/mysqli/etc. modules may work transparently already) - so we shall see.

So wish me luck!
