Thanks, we will look into this shortly.

There is two issues I can think of with using libdrizzle with MariaDB:

- The client api is not binary compatible with MySQL.
 This is a problem as we would like to be binary compatible with
 MySQL's client library so that anyone can just replace MySQL with
 MariaDB packages without having to recompile the clients.

- libdrizzle doesn't support, as far as I know, some MySQL features
 like prepared statements.
 Do you have a full list of what things are not supported in
 libdrizzle compared to libmysql?

I would also like to do a full benchmarks to compare libdrizzle with
libmysql to know how the libraries compare speedwise; I have already
asigned this task to hakan.

Regards,
Monty
