Well, from Pale Purple's point of view, we've found more bugs in MySQL
(2) than PostgreSQL (0) - however, we do use MySQL for about 60+% of
projects - normally due to the customer requesting it, or legacy code
requiring it.


It _sounds_ like MySQL releases are being driven by a marketing
department, and not by a desire for quality/reliability... perhaps this
will change with Sun?.

Thanks
