Login Support
.............
Login support includes everything in extended e-mail support with these
additions:
* Your e-mail will be dealt with even before e-mail from extended
e-mail support users.
* Your suggestions for the further development of MySQL will be
taken into very high consideration. Realistic extensions that can
be implemented in a couple of hours and that suit the basic goals
of MySQL will be implemented as soon as possible.
* If you have a very specific problem, we can try to log in on your
system to solve the problem "in place."
* Like any database vendor, we can't guarantee that we can rescue
any data from crashed tables, but if the worst happens, we will
help you rescue as much as possible. MySQL has proven itself very
reliable, but anything is possible due to circumstances beyond our
control (for example, if your system crashes or someone kills the
server by executing a `kill -9' command).
* We will provide hints on optimizing your system and your queries.
* You are allowed to call a MySQL developer (in moderation) and
discuss your MySQL-related problems. This option is however only
to be used as a last result during an emergency after we have
failed to grasp the total problem with email. To make efficient
use of our time we need to first get all facts about the problem,
before talking on phone, to be able to work as efficiently as
possible on solving the problem.
