MySQL 4.0 has escaped!

MySQL 4.0 has been announced and released onto the world.

Here is the blurb from the site:

"The long awaited version 4.0 of the MySQL database is now available for download at the MySQL website. The new version is intended as a platform for building mission critical, heavy load database solutions, and much effort has been put into providing a solid foundation for planned enhancements, some of which are included from the start. Although the current release is an alpha version, the development team expects to release a beta version after rapid initial testing and will also add a number of new features in the weeks to come."

Hopefully Geeklog will soon be MySQL 4.0 fully-compliant, and we'll keep you up to date on that.
