 * What's the story on more advanced features, like
    transactions/rollbacks, and outer joins ?
 * Does it annoy you that people can sell databases like Oracle that drive
    people mad, when you give yours away, or is the fact that people don't
    have breakdowns over shortcomings in MySQL (speaking from experience
    here) ?
 * Why Monty ? Did you ever play "Monty on the Run", on the 8-bit
    computers?
