I'm working on this driver because I need it for my own startup
13+
([transloadit.com][transloadit]), but it's a big project (~100-200 hours) with
14+
obvious benefits to other companies who are using MySql.
15+
16+
So if your company could benefit from a well-engineered node.js mysql driver,
17+
I would greatly appriciate any sponsorship you may be able to provide. Contact
18+
me at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) for details.
19+

Of course I'm also happy about code contributions. If you're interested in
21+
working on features, just get in touch so we can talk about API design and
22+
testing.

## Design Goals
927

28+
* TDD: All code is written using test driven development, code coverage should approach 100%
1029
* Simplicity: The MySQL protocol is easy, a good parser should reflect that
1130
* Efficiency: Use fast algorithms, buffers and as little memory as possible.
1231
* Portability: Should run anywhere node runs
1332
* Completeness: The goal is to support the full MySQL API.
33+
* Compatibility: MySql >= 4.1
