Hi again :) As well as MariaDb there is also Drizzle which is supported by many of TDF's supporters http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drizzle_(database_server) and their homepage http://drizzle.org/ Regards again from that other Tom ;)

As a connector to the DB I have tried out the Java version (always had trouble with it one way or the other!) as well as ODBC/UNIXODBC (which is what I am now using under Linux and which works sort of!). With MySQL there is also the native connector which I would actually prefer to use - but, yes you guess right - does NOT work on either LO 3.3.3 or 3.4.1 under Linux. A bit confusing, isn't it! I am not giving up hope yet for LO 3.4.2 - especially since it targets business... Isn't there a OpenSource fork of MySQL called MariaDB?!?
