Subject:MySQL GUI Tools for 5.0 Release 13 for Windows available for download
View as plain text  
Dear MySQL users,

we are happy to announce the new 5.0-r13 release of the MySQL GUI  
tools bundle. After more than a year without any update it was time to  
refresh the package. This release is a pure maintenance release, which  
means it contains no new (major) feature. Due to limited resources we  
also can only do this maintenance for the Windows part of the GUI  
tools. However, we are planning to move the entire code base of the  
legacy GUI tools to Launchpad early next year, so it should become  
much easier for external contributors to help out with patches or to  
create a new release for Linux and Mac OS X.

Our plans for the legacy GUI tools are to move their features step-by- 
step into MySQL Workbench (http://dev.mysql.com/workbench/?p=83) to  
have one central location for design and management. Until this  
integration is done we will bring out a new release of the legacy  
tools at least once per month, providing our users with bug fixes and  
a few sensitive improvements.

For this release you can find the changelog below. For those wanting  
to know more about the GUI tools in general there follows a short  
description, including download and info links.
