If you have been MySQL User for many years you might remember the times when MySQL had “zero bugs policy”, this is when all known bugs really were fixed before release was made. To be honest at that time bugs were reported via bugs mailing list not via bugs database as they are now so they were not tracked so accurately but still there was intention and all known serious bugs were fixed before release was made.
Over years this policy had few changes, transforming to something like “no critical bugs in production releases” and in practice releases moved to predictive schedule rather than based on the moment when all bugs were fixed.

It is submission time now, with about one week left till proposal submission deadline. Both me and Vadim had submitted few talks to the Grand Jury which will make elite selection of sessions for MySQL Users Conference and we plan to submit few more.
Our experience in MySQL is rather broad - we can prepare talks in areas of MySQL Performance Optimization, Scaling, High Availability and Replication , efficient application design, good operations practices or take one of applications we helped with and show its internals as a case. We can do some new talks or update some of old talks with modern material such as those about general MySQL Performance Optimization or Innodb Tuning.
Anyway we would like to hear what would you like to hear about on MySQL Users Conference and if that falls in our area of experience we’ll propose such talk !
