I for one care much more about Drizzle than about MariaDB. From what I can
tell MariaDB is basically just a new storage engine inside the old crufty
MySQL shell whereas Drizzle is a (much needed) overhaul of the whole thing.
Much more interesting for future projects if you ask me.

Meh. May the best code win. I would have thought that at the moment
you could pretty much drop the MariaDB sources into the MySQL
directories and:
sed 's/MySQL/MariaDB/g' mysql.spec > mariadb.spec
as a start.
