Mysql 5.0 was released as stable at last. I'd like to migrate on it, because need triggers and stored procedures.

But will it be compatible with EZ ?

There are some changes, wich can make a sense. The most critical: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/news-5-0-12.html (about LEFT JOIN).

Of cause, I can force it in "MYSQL40" mode (look here http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/server-sql-mode.html ) but that doesn't resolve all problems.

Could anyone tell be about current sutuation with MYSQL 5.0 ?

If It's not compatible, how fast could you fix it? I currently run 2 apaches and 2 php. But that's too much for me to run also 2 MYSQL-s at my server :) .

I hope, that compatibility with MYSQL 5.0 will be reached faster, than with php 5.0. It whould be very upset to wait another 1 year :) .

We have tested briefly with MySQL 5.0 and have not come across any problems so far. We have some developers running MySQL 5.0 and any problems will be fixed when/if we find them.

We migrated a production install of 3.7.2 onto MySQL 5.0 and have not had a single problem (which is more than can be said for one of our other applications). Will shout if anything starts to go wrong.
