>From MySQL manual: http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Release_philosophy.html If we, after the release is done, get any bug reports that there was (after all) anything critically wrong with the build on a specific platform, we will fix this at once and build a new 'a' release for that platform. Thanks to our large user base, problems are found quickly. -- For technical support contracts, goto https://order.mysql.com/?ref=ensita This email is sponsored by Ensita.net http://www.ensita.net/ __ ___ ___ ____ __ / |/ /_ __/ __/ __ \/ / Victoria Reznichenko / /|_/ / // /\ \/ /_/ / /__ [EMAIL PROTECTED] /_/ /_/\_, /___/\___\_\___/ MySQL AB / Ensita.net <___/ www.mysql.com -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
