sweeping allegations?
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/server-sql-mode.html
SET [GLOBAL|SESSION] sql_mode='ALLOW_INVALID_DATES'
That being said the solution is still lacking. I even filed a bug report over this:
http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=17998
So I guess you can continue your commentary. Anyways, it was not my
intention to educate PostgreSQL developers about MySQL, only that it
would be wise not to make general comments about MySQL if you do not
follow its development.
