 Reporter:  SergeyBiryukov      |      Owner:  (none)
     Type:  defect              |     Status:  new
 Priority:  normal              |  Milestone:
Component:  WordPress.org Site  |   Keywords:
--------------------------------+--------------------
 Background: #4248, #WP41490.

 The [https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/ Requirements] page
 currently lists MySQL 5.6 or greater and MariaDB 10.1 or greater as
 recommended.

 In https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/41490#comment:11, @JavierCasares
 pointed out that these versions are no longer supported and should be
 bumped to MySQL 5.7 and MariaDB 10.2.

 Per the [https://mariadb.org/about/#maintenance-policy MariaDB maintenance
 policy], support for version 10.2 ends in May 2022, at which point this
 should be revisited again.
