For Drizzle build 1240 this release includes:
Dynamic loading of plugins at server start up
- The majority of the existing plugins have been set to be loaded dynamically rather than compiled statically with the server
- Non-default plugin modules can be loaded with a command line option, —plugin-add, which takes a comma-separated list of plugin module names, e.g.: —plugin-add=csv,memcached_functions
- —plugin-add will load the default list of plugins in addition to the plugins requested
- —plugin-load which takes a similar list but overrides the entire list of plugins to be loaded
- In the source tree plugin test cases are now kept with the plugins themselves, so a provided plugin can be self-contained and also provide test cases
HEAP has been renamed to MEMORY when specifying the storage engine

We now have the Random Query Generator running as part of our automated testing framework! Thanks to Stewart for kick starting the port for Drizzle and Philip Stoev and Bernt Johnsen of the MySQL team for merging in our changes. I’m still trying to figure out all the bells and whistles and fine tuning but we have several canned configurations running and even found a bug in Drizzle as a result of some of the tests. You can see the results on the Drizzle dashboard. I welcome any feedback or suggestions for improving the setup.

Drizzle source tarball based on build 1144 has been released. This release contains a very nice feature from Eric that allows you to run drizzled as a console. It looks and feels like the normal command line client, but there are no sockets involved. See Eric’s note on the discussion list for complete details.
