First, note that we are not taking students yet. MariaDB was not yet accepted into GSoC 2016 - we applied, but the list of accepted organizations will be announced on February 29th. See https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/ But anyway, if you like an early start... This project is described in our bug/feature tracker at https://mariadb.atlassian.net/browse/MDEV-7773 As you can see, while the functionality is reasonably clear, the syntax is not. So, the first task - before any coding could start - would be to decide what syntax to implement. See MDEV-7773, check what other databases do, tell which one you prefer, have your own ideas. Discuss them here on the list :) Regards, Sergei Chief Architect MariaDB and [email protected] _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
