It is pretty interesting to see all those quirks together like that. Particularly the date handling.

One of the things I actually like about MySQL is the idea of having different Storage Engines tuned for different purposes. I've often thought it would be interesting to some how use Postgres as a MySQL Storage Engine. I think Falcon will be close to that goal. I am looking forward to seeing how 6.0 turns out.

    PostgreSQL in MySQL? So that's how they get decent replication in PostgreSQL.
