David J. Hughes
For the effort to make a shareware SQL database. At TcX, the
predecessor of MySQL AB, we started with
mSQL, but found that it couldn't satisfy
our purposes so instead we wrote an SQL interface to our application
builder Unireg. mysqladmin
and
mysql client are
programs that were largely influenced by their
mSQL counterparts. We have put a lot of effort into making
the MySQL syntax a superset of mSQL.
Many of the API's ideas are borrowed from mSQL
to make it easy to port free mSQL
programs to the MySQL API. The MySQL software doesn't contain any
code from
mSQL. Two files in the distribution (client/insert_test.c
and
client/select_test.c) are based on the
corresponding (non-copyrighted) files in the
mSQL distribution, but are modified as
examples showing the changes necessary to convert code from
mSQL to MySQL Server. (mSQL
is copyrighted David J. Hughes.)

Previous developers of NDB Cluster
Lots of people were involved in various ways summer students, master
thesis students, employees. In total more than 100 people so too
many to mention here. Notable name is Ataullah Dabaghi who up until
1999 contributed around a third of the code base. A special thanks
also to developers of the AXE system which provided much of the
architectural foundations for NDB Cluster with blocks, signals and
crash tracing functionality. Also credit should be given to those
who believed in the ideas enough to allocate of their budgets for
its development from 1992 to present time.
