Hoi,
It would be suitable when Domas says that we can support is. The current
software may be stable, but keeping us from improved language support.
Improved language support is what we need. Improved language support is
essential for improving usability for the majority of our languages.
Supporting languages is as technical as providing stability. How to weigh
this is not obvious either way.
Thanks,
GerardM

I didn't mean some idealistic notion of what's most valuable to
humanity. I meant money. There are plenty of MySQL databases whose
continued efficient operation is worth many millions of dollars to
their owners. Wikimedia's database is worth almost nothing
commercially due to its licensing. Databases that are valuable (as in
money) will have owners who are willing to spend money to get them
working better, and money is what MySQL cares most about. It's a
business.

An upgrade to MySQL 6 would make a big difference

support.
MySQL 6 is still in alpha. It is not close to suitable for production
use. Upgrading to it is totally out of the question.
