Download MySQL 4.1 alpha

Hot off the press we can report that an alpha release of MySQL 4.1 has been released. This contains the long-awaited ‘foreign key integrity rule’ and the ‘nested subqueries’, something that was still missing in MySQL. A very big one list of changes cannot be found. A nice announcement which is described below:

LINUXWORLD EXPO, NEW YORK – (January 21, 2003) – MySQL AB, developer of the world’s most popular open source database, today announced a new version of the MySQL™ database that includes “subselects” and other enhancements designed to facilitate large-scale enterprise application development with MySQL.
