MySQL Workbench 5.1.10 Beta availabe

[Alfredo Kojima]

Dear MySQL users,

we are proud to announce the release of the second official Beta of
MySQL Workbench 5.1, the next highly anticipated version of our database
GUI tool - MySQL Workbench. This release is available for all
major platforms: MacOS X, Linux and Windows.

We have fixed more than 30 bugs and added some enhancements that to the
interface. There's a new editor for defining/maintaining User Defined
Datatypes. The binary-packages are available for several different
platforms as well as the zipped sources for building workbench yourself.

Again we say "thank you" to all folks helping with testing our
work-in-progress-versions, reporting problems, building the source on
different distros and letting us know how it works out. Please keep up
the good work!
