Hi :)
  Base users that are currently using MySql/MariaDb might be interested in the 
events that are after the announcement of the new release of MariaDb.

It would be great if someone on the Postgresql mailing lists could let us know 
of significant announcements from them.  For MariaDb i try to do one for 
beta-testing and 1 for full release.

MariaDb is a drop-in replacement for, but develops faster than, MySql.  Also 
it's run by the community in much the same way as LibreOffice, Firefox and so 
on.

Tom :)

To: [email protected]
Date: Monday, 9 April, 2012, 9:01

The MariaDB project is pleased to announce the immediate availability of 
MariaDB 5.3.6. This is a stable (GA) release. It includes MySQL 5.1.62, some 
performance improvements, and several bug fixes.

Most importantly, MariaDB 5.3.6 includes a fix for a bug which, under certain 
rare circumstances, allowed a user to connect with an invalid password. This is 
a serious security issue. We recommend upgrading from older versions as soon as 
possible.

The MariaDB-specific book, MariaDB Crash Course, by Ben Forta, is an excellent 
way to learn more about MariaDB. This book - for beginner to intermediate level 
users - will get you up and running with MariaDB, even if you've never used a 
database before. More information is available at:

MariaDB includes a User Feedback plugin. This plugin is disabled by default. If 
enabled, it submits basic, completely anonymous MariaDB usage information. This 
information is used by the developers to track trends in MariaDB usage to 
better guide development efforts.

If you would like to help make MariaDB better, please add
"plugin-load=feedback.so" to your my.cnf file! On Windows, add
"feedback=ON" to your my.ini file, or click the checkbox during the
installation of the MSI package.

See http://kb.askmonty.org/en/user-feedback-plugin for more information.
