Ah... That is totally unnecessary. ^^;

Ah... it's embarrassing that, I will travel to another city later to
deliver an OpenOffice macro class for two days, and will return before
Thursday evening (16-22 UTC). ^^; That's the earliest time I'm
available this week.
And, currently, VI has the lowest traffic. But we have to notify
Phan first.

The "ps_helper" database:
https://www.google.com.tw/#q=ps_helper+mysql
The "test" database can be safely ignored. It's a standard MySQL
database for testing purpose. When installing Perl DBD::mysql library,
we need a database to test if DBD::mysql is working. There should
always a database named "test" (although some DB admins prefer to remove
it), but you do not need to bother with its contents.
