MySQL AB wants to work closely with the Linux distribution community, and that means active participation in the Fedora Project. Previously we've had our differences with regards to licensing, and a mishmash of 3.23 libraries and a 4.x server - we shall cover that in a more in-depth session. A lot of external developers and coders wonder how their code can get into MySQL's tree, or get hacking on MySQL - this is easy! Learn more about the storage engines shipped, so you may find something to hack on. There will also possibly be a quick cluster demo, if time (and hardware) permits

Promote developers to do developement in the L10N area.
