+We always have critical stuff working on mysql.

+
+of course i can wait some more, however, it's because people don't test it, 
+that i'm wanting to test in core/release.
+
+I believe mikala said to his padawan that when i submit mariadb to 
+core/release that he should see if akonadi and/or amarok can build on it.
+
+this is not to say that i don't have done any local testing of course... but 
+core/updates_testing is just not used at all... it's been 3 weeks.
+
+my point is that we can submit mariadb so that it does get proper testing 
+before alpha2.
+
+I believe if it isn't workable, we can always delete mariadb and resubmit 
+mysql? right?

+PS: i didn't test everything, but the things i did test, did not have 
+issues... so i don't think this is truly that problematic.
