Lists

This encyclopedia article clearly does not have enough lists. I count at least three maybe four paragraphs of prose. Moreover, somebody has really dumbed it down. There are sections that almost sound as if it were written for an audience that included non-programs of MySQL. And definitely, let's nail down that pronunciation. I think we should have a Finnish speaker pronounce it and then include the audio recording. I will volunteer to learn Finnish in furtherance of this task.

AliSQL

AliSQL fork currently inherits Alibaba's contribution to WebScaleSQL, which is abandoned now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cvp16 (talk • contribs) 14:32, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure what that means for inclusion in this article, but anything you're writing about needs a reliable secondary source. --McGeddon (talk) 15:28, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Forks vs Branches

I don't know if it's fair to call projects like MariaDB and especially Percona "forks." If a project continuously creates branches of the original source and modifies that, it is not really a fork, but a branch (or a series of branches). Drizzle was a true fork because it went its own way. MariaDB, with its emphasis on compatibility, seems more like a branch. I watched Monty giving a talk on YouTube (from 2010: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AL1l9Puh0sk) where he spends some time emphasizing MariaDB is not a fork, but a branch. Percona is just a series of branches. It's not really an independent fork in any sense. Doorzki (talk) 23:29, 29 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
