    <summary><![CDATA[MariaDB started life as a fork of Oracle MySQL, and offered some important new features and performance improvements.  As a project from MySQL's founder ("Monty" Widenius), and initially advertised as a drop-in replacement for MySQL, MariaDB got a lot of traction in a short amount of time, and for largely political reasons, it is now in some linux distributions, what you get when you do a package installation for MySQL.  ]]></summary>
