It's taken some time, but I have backported the simple_password_check plugin and the password api to MariaDB 5.5 The mysql-test is succeeding on all but the test of the strict_password_validation variable. My question is, should a pure backport include support for strict_password_validation variable ( https://mariadb.com/kb/en/mariadb/server-system-variables/#strict_password_v...) ? I suspect yes, but wanted to ask to start a further discussion: namely if I submit this patch will it be included in future MariaDB 5.5 releases?

I'll see if I can't grab the code and get it to compile for 5.5 unless that's in the works maybe?
this is currently not in the works, so if you try it and it works, do let us know -- Colin Charles, Chief Evangelist, MariaDB Corporation blog: http://bytebot.net/blog/| t: +6-012-204-3201 | Skype: colincharles
