[ale] MySQL Cluster

[Jim Kinney]

I have not set it up yet but 9 supports multi-master mode (i.e. >2
masters). I'm not sure how they do the locking (row vs. table) so that may
be an issue for performance, but then, high write systems are _not_ high
performance :-)

As long as the general population is passive, apathetic, diverted to
consumerism or hatred of the vulnerable, then the powerful can do as they
please, and those who survive will be left to contemplate the outcome.
