Extended E-mail Support
.......................

Extended e-mail support includes everything in basic e-mail support with
these additions:

   * Your e-mail will be dealt with before mail from basic e-mail
     support users and non-registered users.

   * Your suggestions for the further development of MySQL will receive
     strong consideration.  Simple extensions that suit the basic goals
     of MySQL are implemented in a matter of days.  By taking extended
     e-mail support you have already helped the further development of
     MySQL.

   * Typical situations that are covered by extended e-mail support are:

        - We will answer and (within reason) solve questions that
          relate to possible bugs in MySQL.  As soon as the bug is
          found and corrected, we will mail a patch for it.

        - We will help with unexpected problems when you install MySQL
          from a source or binary distribution on supported platforms.

        - We will answer questions about missing features and offer
          hints how to work around them.

        - We will provide hints on optimizing `mysqld' for your
          situation.

   * You are allowed to influence the priority of items on the MySQL
     TODO List.  Note: TODO.  This will ensure that the features you
     really need will be implemented sooner than they might be
     otherwise.
