Hi all

I remember these slides and this worklog about supporting external languages for stored procedures:

* http://www.slideshare.net/AntonyTCurtis/external-stored-proceduresformysql2009
* http://www.slideshare.net/AntonyTCurtis/a-tour-of-external-language-stored-procedures-for-my-sql-presentation
* https://dev.mysql.com/worklog/task/?id=820

As far as I can guess from the slides, there has been some active work on this idea, and some working code. I hoped so badly that I could see this in 5.x, and then in10.0, and then in 10.1. Is there any chance to see this feature in a future release, or should I just stop waiting?

Please, consider all the benefits that would come from this: using a "real" language, using existing libraries, getting rid of almost all current stored procedures limitations...

Regards
Federico
