Both MySQL 5.6 and MariaDB 10.0 are still only in experimental. The
5.5 versions are in testing and functional and well tested, so it
looks like that those will go to Jessie.

>From commit logs you can see that I've done a lot of fine tuning, but
I don't have an active sponsor for my MariaDB 10.0 packages at the
moment, so the progress will not be useful to anybody for a while.
There has also been work going on for mysql-5.6, but there isn't too
much manpower around in the maint-mysql team in general, so I don't
think it is likely that either will get into unstable and forwards any
soon.
