It's once again the typical MySQL propaganda. As usual they compare a
future version of MySQL against an old release of PostgreSQL. And they
just compare on buzzword level.
Do their foreign keys have referential actions and deferrability? Is log
based master slave replication all there can be?

And surely do we have something that compares to *their* roadmap. That
they cannot find it is because it's named HISTORY.
