MariaDB as an alternative to MySQL

I would like MariaDB be a selection vs MySQL.  I believe that MariaDB has a more stable code base than MySQL and receives more updates and bug fixes.  I use it on a daily basis and it has worked as a better replacement for MySQL.

Since Postfix comes built against MySQL, it's difficult to build an RPM for MariaDB.  A prebuilt version of MariaDB would solve this.  Thanks!
