Just a placeholder ticket for now, but since Oracle bought Sun, I'm anticipating that they will eventually run the community version of MySQL into the ground, making PostgreSQL the only viable alternative.

    Also worth mentioning here is the possibility of switching to MariaDB instead; it's working for me locally, at least, and is a much more minimal change.
