Since I'm not at home, and not putting the video on a 42" TV, I *CANNOT* read most of what they're typing, and the system responses not at all. However, if, just before the video goes from the lead page announcing "postgresql" to the video of them typing, for about a 3 sec pause, you freeze the video, it says "this is from <http://sql-info.de/mysql/gotchas.html> Great, so here's the text. And I start reading.... Excerpt: he MySQL database server is being continually improved. Some gotchas described here are no longer relevant for the latest versions; in these cases the version numbers affected are noted at the top of each section. As a rule gotchas have been tested against the most recent stable versions from the 3.23.x, 4.0.x and 4.1.x series. --- end excerpt --- It says, at the bottom, that it was last updated in 2014. When did mysql 5.0 come out - five years ago? more? Oh, sorry, I google mysql 5.0 release, and I find release notes for 5.0.24... from TEN YEARS AGO. I don't really feel like testing out some of the site's gotcha in the mysql we have running here... but everything here is from the std. base repo, and for CentOS 6, is 5.1.73-5. mark So, I don't have a lot of confidence in the gotchas, until I test it, or find someone who's tested them in the last 10 years against the main branch. mark
