Dear MySQL users,

the MySQL Developer Tools team has released a new Beta build of the
MySQL Workbench project.

MySQL Workbench is a next-generation visual database design application
that can be used to efficiently design, manage and document database
schemata. For more information about the MySQL Workbench project please
visit the MySQL Workbench Developer Central site at

     http://dev.mysql.com/workbench/

For screenshots please browse to
     http://dev.mysql.com/workbench/?page_id=35


The team has managed to fix many bugs since the last release and added
improvements - such as adding compatibility of the SQL-parser with SQL
grammar of MySQL DBMS v5.1.22-community - to the tool. All users are
recommended to update to this release.

For a detailed change log please browse to
     http://dev.mysql.com/workbench/?page_id=49

Please download the Community Edition Beta from
     http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/workbench/5.0.html


Standard Edition Beta Testing Program
-------------------------------------
The response to our call for SE Beta testers has been amazing. But we
can never have enough motivated people ready to contribute to the
project. So if you are interested please drop an email to
workbench@stripped with your contact information and we will add you to
the testing program. There are no strings attached, only requirement is
that you are really going to test the tool and can spend time reporting
the bugs you find.

Enjoy!

Johannes
