Dear Perl and MySQL community, I’m pleased to announce the release of DBD::mysql 4.030_01. This is a test release, meaning that we are on our way to a full-blown release. There are some great features in this release particularly to do with prepared statement handling on MySQL 5.6 as well as other features:
* Correct attribution to David Dick #86030: PATCH: adding statistics_info support * Test suite can now be run in parallel. Fixes RT98994 reported by DOHERTY. * Fixes for MySQL 5.6+ and for prepared statement handling (stevenh on github). * Fix for RT100792, New test t/05dbcreate.t fails if user has no permissions. * Fix for bit test (RT68374, bjd...@cpan.org) CaptTofu added 40bit.t to test. I want for first thank Michiel Beijen who was a catalyst for this release including reviewing bugs and ensuring fixes made it in, testing, verifying on Windows that all was well, as well as noticing David Dick didn’t receive correct attribution in a prior fix. I’m very grateful to be working with him! Also thanks to anyone who has contributed to this project. It’s my goal to always make sure to make use of so many great bug fixes and features that users in the community provide.
