 And as is the rule for some time now, rolling upgrades from previous versions
 are supported, so there is nothing stopping you to get all those goodies right
 now!

 Both source and binary distributions of Cassandra 1.0.0 can be downloaded at:

  http://cassandra.apache.org/download/

 Or you can use the debian package available from the project APT repository[3]
 (you will need to use the 10x series).

 The download page also link to the CQL drivers that, from this release on, are
 maintained out of tree[9].


 That's all folks!

In 0.8, the schema disagreement occurs sometimes when I create
keyspaces/column families dynamically, is this also fixed?
