[Phpmyadmin-devel] GSoC Drizzle : wording on main page

Hi Piotr, In commit add6c6325c [0], you dropped MySQL from the collation and charset description. Both strings seem a bit confusing now, I would replace 'MySQL' to 'Server' or 'Database', or make the 'MySQL' prefix conditional (and replace it by 'Drizzle' in case of Drizzle), like you did with the heading of the server info section.

Ok, changed to `Server'. -- Piotr Przybylski

Looks good. I noticed that the '?' icon next to 'Server connection collation' links to the MySQL documentation. This should point to the Drizzle documenation, to avoid confusion. But I guess there are a whole lot more links to MySQL documentation that should point to Drizzle documentation. Did you put it in your planning to change the documentation links? Kind regards, Dieter

No, it's something that should be done at the end of GSoS, provided that Drizzle documentation becomes usable at that point. Right now it's far from complete and contains some obsolete information. I saw on their mailing list that there are plans to improve it, we can only hope it happens soon enough. -- Piotr Przybylski

Also please consider that we can be connected to MariaDB server, so the naming should either include it as well or be server neutral. -- Michal Čihař | http://cihar.com | http://blog.cihar.com

Then we have two options for I the conditional MySQL/Drizzle header: 1) change it to 'Database server', add some information on server type in frame 2) add another case: MariaDB Both solutions require some form of detecting whether we are working with plain MySQL or with MariaDB. -- Piotr Przybylski

I think this is better option, adding server type next to server version (anyway MySQL version 2011.03.13 sounds crazy). -- Michal Čihař | http://cihar.com | http://blog.cihar.com

You implemented option 2. ;) I think it's better to have 'Database server' as header and then a 'Server type :' field with the kind of server. This is more consistent with the 'Web server' section below. Kind regards, Dieter
