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
