> The release notes value brevity, so let me try this on you:

> + Note that the database binary data file formats are not backwards

> + not be able to switch back to any previous version of MariaDB or
> + MySQL unless you have a proper database dump. Therefore, before
> + upgrading, please make backups of all important databases with
> + an appropriate tool such as <command>mysqldump</command>.
