Hi David. Last year, I imported mariadb104 to wip. It builds on
NetBSD/amd64, but I didn't feel confident importing it without further
testing, and I lack an application to test with myself. I don't remember
many other people stepping forward who were interested, so I stopped working
on it, but we can resume updating it if you have any suggestions for
what needs improving, and ways to move forward.
