A few days ago, Oracle released three new MySQL GA versions: 8.2.0, 8.0.35 and 5.7.44. I skimmed the release notes (8.2.0, 8.0.35 and 5.7.44), and I am not impressed. I guess that I would be even less impressed / more disappointed if I had checked in greater detail, and if I had reviewed the 8.1.0, 8.0.34 and 5.7.43 release notes. The subject of my disappointment is Oracle not fixing bugs in ALL of the LTS releases, sometimes only fixing them in the latest Innovation Release. This post summarizes my findings and thoughts.
