several bugs in InnoDB are fixed in 3.23.52, but they are rare, mostly
discovered with my own synthetic stress tests on InnoDB.

Yes, until recently the stable 3.23 versions have had a faster release
turnover and consequently have got the bug fixes sooner.

My guess is 4.0.3 will be released August 31, 2002. Since in the future the
biggest changes are put to the 4.1 branch we can release new versions of 4.0
at shorter intervals. They will be mostly bug fix releases, and will make
4.0 eventually a stable release.

You are right. InnoDB in the 3.23 and 4.0 branches is the same. Only the
date of release determines how fresh the InnoDB version in it is.
