MySQL 5.0 in 2005 ?
by Betcour on Fri 18th Jun 2004 06:46 UTC

I quite don't see how MySQL 5.0 could be "production" in early 2005 when MySQL 4.1 is still in alpha stage (and there are beta and gamma to go before production).

Contrary to the interview I find MySQL developpment a lot slower than PostgreSQL. It only seems to be catching up on PostgreSQL because PostgreSQL has already most of the feature of a modern database, and hence there's not much new stuff being added.

(disclaimer : I'm a MySQL 4.0 user, just tired of waiting)
