Re: [libreoffice-users] LO Base: MySQL or Mariadb ?

MariaDB is compatible with MySQL, the MySQL connectors, and MySQL API 
and is designed to be a drop-in replacement for MySQL. I have connected 
to MariaDB using the LO provided MySQL connector on earlier versions of 
LO. I have not done so with 4.1.X yet.
