This is a immediate order to COMPLETELY STOP and CEASE all development of MySQL database server. This is due to rapid changes in the Global Economic conditions..
You do not have time to deal with one powerful SQL server like PostgreSQL, where do you have time to deal with two types of SQL servers. Question is why have two?? There is no time to deal with two open source SQL servers. After doing research, it is recommended that you stick with just PostgreSQL. With huge amount of efforts MySQL can be brought closer to PostgreSQL level (and perhaps it may NEVER be possible to bring MySQL to the level of technology of PostgreSQL). Even if it is done it will be a waste of time.. The WORLD economy started taking nose dive for the last 2 years. Last year a mild global economic recession started which forced thousands of companies world-wide closing down. Last year millions of dot-com went bust. It is predicted that there is a impending "World-War-III" like situation is developing in the middle-east and Afghanistan which may have significant effect in Asian and European countries. But that may NOT have lot of economic effects on North/South American countries like Brazil, USA, Canada, Mexico.. Nevertheless, overall economy of the globe will get the impact. And, hence drop off the MySQL now and migrate all your data to PostgreSQL.. By the way, PostgreSQL runs on all platforms - All unixes, linux, Apple Macintosh and MS Windows 98/NT/2000 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
