Does anyone have recommendations or experience migrating away from MySQL toward 
either MariaDB or Percona?

I'm not looking for a discussion about the products themselves; there is plenty 
on the internet to read about that. But I'm interested in stability and support 
on FreeBSD. None of mysql, percona or mariadb have anything but a fleeting 
reference to FreeBSD on their sites. And the FreeBSD ports appear to have a 
roughly equal set of patches [1] [2] [3], so it doesn't appear that any of them 
have upstreamed patches or perform their own testing on FreeBSD.

I'm looking to adopt Galera for clustering. Is there anything to recommend one 
over the other with regard to stability on BSD? Do either of Maria or Percona 
have a stronger involvement with the FreeBSD community? I know Oracle isn't big 
on community :-(


Cheers
Ari
