After last 10 years has PostgreSQL significantly better reputation
than MySQL or MariaDB - minimally in Czech Republic and higher release
number in MariaDB change nothing if we stay in our quality and we will
enhance performance.

I have list of committed patches and I don't see any patch that have a
weight for jump to version 10. Almost all new features will not be
fully complete in 9.3 - and it will be done in 9.4.
