Replace mysql with mariadb

OOo was Oracle - it is replaced by LibreOffice
JRE and JDK are Oracle - they will be removed soon
MySQL is Oracle - so please replace it with MariaDB

I really love that Slackware doesn't go the way which SUSE, Red Hat and Ubuntu do.

So please don't let the kraken claim our General Public Licensed software.

MariaDB is relaxing in Slackbuilds ;)

Here- http://slackbuilds.org/repository/13.1/system/mariadb/

Replacement licences?
Scala is there .. HaXE/Neko seem to be contenders...but im not sure how it affects the Slackware architecture.

Thanks for the server tip too,Spixi :)
