HI,

I saw a question about moving from mysql to postgres, and it seems your not supporting it.

Are there any plans of supporting or moving to other dbs?

I thought about moving to MariaDB. It's a community fork from MySQL, that being led by the original developers. They started because they didn't liked the way Oracle is taking MySQL.

The thing is - MariaDB is fully open source and free and maintainced by the community, unlike MySQL which was bought by Oracle, and maybe will not kept as open source or fully free (there already features that cost).

There are already several big sites that adopted MariaDB, such as Wikipedia.

So, what about moving the q2a core from MySQL to MariaDB?

To keep the project the most open source possible.

Currently, MariaDB is still kind of compatible with MySQL. Although it won't be forever. So I think it's a good time to consider it.
