in thread DBD::MariaDB or DBD::Mysql
Sounds like
- DBD::MariaDB fixes SSL issues (which may or may not still be present in DBD::mysql)
- DBD::MariaDB fixes issues with character encodings that can't be fixed in DBD::mysql without causing existing code to break.[1]
- Well, so that slides claim. It seems to me a flag to the constructor could also do the trick, but that might have led to very complex code.
