The main change in this release is that MySQL has been upgraded to  
version 5.0.27 and Rake has been upgraded to the recently released  
0.7.2.

Many thanks to Jirka Pech who made the MySQL upgrade possible.

PS  
You made need to wait a little bit before downloading. I started  
the upload to RubyForge and went to to bed. If there are any upload  
errors, I will have to start the upload in about 6 hours when I get  
up.
