MySQL Community Contribution: One bug fix at a time ...
It is all about one bug fix, one little feature, one step at a time.
Armin Schöffmann fixed a bug (Deadlock in mysql_real_query with shared memory connections, is what Armin calls it), Armin signed the Sun Contributor Agreement (24 March 2009), Vladislav Vaintroub and Davi Arnaut reviewed, committed and queued the patch to MySQL 5.0 bug team (26 and 27th of March, 2009).
That's a great example of open, contribution-based MySQL development with real results.
Thank you Armin!
Thank you Vlad!
Thank you Chad!
Thank you Davi!
Thank you ... the one whose name I've left out! (Feel free to leave a comment below.)

MySQL Ideas for Google Summer of Code (GSoC)

Check out the ideas from MySQL for Google Summer of Code 2009!
These are specially-selected projects for students who are looking to do some coding in a real, open-source, highly-adopted software environment.
The learning experience will be tremendous given that MySQL engineers will be mentoring them.
Some student stipend is provided by the Google Summer of Code. It is intended for students to gain "exposure to real-world software development scenarios
and the opportunity for employment in areas related to their academic
pursuits."
