Actually, if you are using latin text only then 4.1.12 is the minimum and OK to use (that's what the message there will say). The problem is non-latin text which can get corrupted during the Unicode conversions in MySQL.

We don't know the exact bug causing the difference, sorry. We know this difference only from real-world tests of different MySQL versions.

Cpanel latest is 4.1.14 currently, but that should probably change soon.

Bryan Williams from remote-learner.net, one of our great Moodle Partners in the US, has graciously allowed us to use his Elluminate meeting room again  smile

Here is the meeting link ... make sure you get there early and set up the Java client you'll need:

Bryan is also holding a big MoodleMoot next week in Savannah, Georgia  which many of us are attending (including me!).  If you haven't already made plans for that and you think you can make it, come along!

Thanks, Robert, first I've heard of your work!  It makes sense to add those functions.  When that's wrapped up let us at it.

Please don't feel bad, the basic roadmap is just that.  The journey itself always includes a lot of other stuff!
