My $.02,
Stick with the ANSI standard. (ANSI99?) Do not try to implement either
PL/SQL or T/SQL. Please do not implement PERL (or Python) , Java, PHP or any
other procedural or OO language in stored procedures. Speaking form
experience, all this does is blur the lines of that the database should do
and what the middle tier should do.
Whatever you do, do not adversely impact the speed at which MySQL runs.
Happy to Alpha/Beta test any patches you may create,
IMHO,
Cal
