SkySQL and MariaDB will bring together industry visionaries, including Michael (Monty) Widenius and David Axmark, the original authors of the MySQL database, to share their insights on current and future trends pertaining to the world's most popular open source database.

This plugin is disabled by default. If enabled, it submits basic, completely anonymous MariaDB usage information. This information is used by the developers to track trends in MariaDB usage to better guide development efforts. If you would like to help make MariaDB better, please add --plugin-load=feedback.so to your my.cnf file! On Windows, add "feedback=ON" to your my.ini file, or click the checkbox during the installation of the MSI package. See http://kb.askmonty.org/en/user-feedback-plugin for more information. --- MariaDB Crash Course book ----------------------------------------- We would also like to mention the book "MariaDB Crash Course", by Ben Forta. This book - for beginner to intermediate level users - will get you up and running with MariaDB, even if you've never used a database before. More information is available at: http://forta.com/books/0321799941/ --- Quality ----------------------------------------------------------- The project always strives for quality, but in reality, nothing is perfect. Please take time to report any issues you encounter at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/maria We hope you enjoy MariaDB! -- Daniel Bartholomew MariaDB - http://mariadb.org Monty Program - http://montyprogram.com AskMonty Knowledgebase - http://kb.askmonty.org
