Excellent! Can’t wait for 5.5GA!
[…] Представлен релиз MariaDB 5.3.5, первый стабильный релиз ветки 5.3.x, основанной на MySQL 5.1 и содержащей портирование некоторых возможностей из ветки MySQL 6. Проект развивается компанией Monty Program Ab, созданной Майклом Видениусом, основателем MySQL, после его ухода из Sun Microsystems.
