For the records:I hope that this news item won't get delayed by the recent ComRel bug someone filled against me regarding this news item.
While we often rush with news items and don't wait the 72h listed in GLEP 42, this one should go out as soon as possible.
Why?Because every minute we wait will increase the chance that someone affected by this will be unable to recover. This is (for those not familiar with database engines) because bin logs are about to expire (getting overwritten) in typical setups after 3-5 days. And in case someone will learn about this not before next week and has to do a full restore, that user will lose about one week of data...
Just saying. -- Regards, Thomas Deutschmann / Gentoo Linux Developer fpr: C4DD 695F A713 8F24 2AA1 5638 5849 7EE5 1D5D 74A5
