Oracle? Percona? MariaDB? Want > your fork in Debian? Let us know! As I have a vested interest in this, I'm shying away from discussion. But MariaDB will support MariaDB 5.5 for the lifetime of Jessie. We have made a similar commitment to Red Hat & SUSE for their enterprise releases as well. MariaDB 5.5 was released April 2012, so the official EOL is April 2017 (longer than the official MySQL 5.5 EOL date in December 2015 -- http://www.oracle.com/us/support/library/lifetime-support-technology-069183.pdf) -- Colin Charles, http://bytebot.net/blog/ twitter: @bytebot | skype: colincharles "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win." -- Mohandas Gandhi
