Hi :)
This is going in circles.  By that way of thinking no-one will try the connector with MariaDb if 
they don't know it will work.  Why would anyone using LibreOffice try MariaDb if TDF people, such 
as yourself, are heavily promoting older proprietary brands and rejecting OpenSource forks?  
Refusing to mention MariaDb severely limits the usefulness of the connector.  

There is another way of thinking!  On this list we only hear of people when they have problems.  So 
far no-one has written in to say they have had a problem with the connector with MariaDb.  We have 
only had a few people write in to complain of problems with the connector with MySql.  How would we 
ever know that the connector does work if it keeps on working just fine?  We only know about things 
after they have broken and then been fixed.  If it's not broken we wouldn't hear about it.  

Regards from
Tom :)

Hi Tom,

Also with the connectors could we please make it clear that it's for MariaDb as well as MySql?    

If you have positive test feedback of using the connectors with MariaDB,
then I will put a note onto the extensions website. Otherwise, as far as
I'm concerned, it is untested and I have no need to mention it,
irrespective of whatever the Oracle history/saga is. I would even
mention that it works with latest available versions of ApacheOOo if
someone has tested it and found that it does.

Alex
