I think the main difference is they have dropped certain features from the classic version which the others actually had namely the much better innodb rather than isam Which would be a royal pain in the a** if you had already made the switch.

You are aware that mysql has always been dual licensed? These prices are for the "non-free" license which means you can include the database server in a commercial product. There is no change in the GPL version of mysql. I believe 5.5 is now out under the GPL version. thanks Tim On 4 November 2010 10:22, Patrick Okui <[email protected]> wrote: > Well, it came sooner than I expected. $2k for InnoDB. > > http://www.mysql.com/products/ > > -- > patrick. > > > _______________________________________________ > LUG mailing list > [email protected] > http://kym.net/mailman/listinfo/lug > > LUG is generously hosted by INFOCOM http://www.infocom.co.ug/ > > All Archives can be found at http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ > > The above comments and data are owned by whoever posted them (including > attachments if any).
