As you may have heard, we're switching to a new release model with the upcoming MySQL 5.4 release.
If you are curious to learn more about what will change in the way in which future versions MySQL will be developed and released, make sure to attend our next MySQL University session about The New MySQL Release Model on Thursday, 11th of June, 14:00 UTC. Tomas Ulin, our director of MySQL server development will go through the planned changes and would also like to get your input and feedback on these changes.
We're using DimDim for broadcasting this session, which allows you to listen to the audio while watching the slides with your web browser. You can comment and discuss via a chat function, too! We're looking forward to your input. To attend, point your browser to this address (Adobe flash player required).
The session will be recorded and posted on the MySQL Forge Wiki, so you can watch the presentation later as well. You can also provide your feedback on the release model by posting on the MySQL Internals mailinglist.
