Drizzle source tarball 2011.05.18 has been released

Tuesday, May 24th, 2011

Drizzle source tarball, version 2011.05.18 has been released.

As a reminder, this is a development release of the Fremont series.  Our stable GA release can be found here.

Another somewhat thin release, but as you may have read, some of the team has been moving around a bit, but with things settling down, expect more goodness to come.  Also, a special thanks to Henrik Ingo for taking the lead on several community tasks - his efforts and insights are a most welcome addition to the project!

In this release:

  • json interface merged
  • added backwards compatibility test to ensure we don't break table formats
  • bug fixes
  • continued code refactoring and improvement

The Drizzle download file can be found here.

 

Drizzle source tarball 2011.05.17 has been released

Tuesday, May 10th, 2011

Drizzle source tarball, version 2011.05.17 has been released.
This is a release of the Fremont series and is a development release.  Our stable GA release can be found here.

A bit of a thin release, but we have been quite busy with ramping up for Google's Summer of Code and some general reorganization after the news you may have read here.  Lots of cool things are incubating though - improvements to replication, catalogs (native multi-tenancy support? what?), and other cool bits (You can also read more here.  Henrik details some of Stewart's heroics toward the end of the post).

Please keep the feedback and bugs coming, they help a lot and it is great to see people using the software!

 

In this release:

  • Various fixes and updates around libdrizzle (thanks Marc Isambart)
  • Continued code refactoring (thanks Olaf)
  • Continued work on dbqp, Drizzle's soon-to-be test-runner
  • Work on uuid's for replication
  • Refactoring work on iocached-rename
  • Continued work on docs
