Description:
Hi,
I'm a windows based application developer and also a high scool programming teacher.
I think that views and stored procedure implementation is of foundamental importance in a database engine like MySql.
Open source sofware can be a valid alternative to commercial software in an educational environment and also in a professional environment but only if it can supply at least the most important feature of commercial products.
I hope that views and stored procedures will be supported as soon as possible.

How to repeat:
execute:
CREATE VIEW

Suggested fix:
Implement views

Views are available as of MySQL 5.0.1, which is available for download from
http://dev.mysql.com/

Thanks.
