Hi, The MySQL Connector for OpenOffice.org, formerly known as Sun MySQL Connector, formerly known as ... ehm, I don't remember ..., has been released in version 1.0.
You might want to visit http://blogs.sun.com/GullFOSS for the detailed announcement (but hey, you already saw this blog posting, right?) http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/mysql_connector for the direct download http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Database/Drivers/MySQL_Native/1.0 for a little Getting Started guide I want to thank the MySQL side of our team for their work - we tried hard to break their underlying Connector/C(++), but if we really managed to, they quickly came back with a fix. How depressing! Also, I want to thank our program manager Marcus Lange, who relieved us from most of the ugly administrative work around such a project which Real Coders (TM) don't like to do. Additionally, without you people testing our previous releases, and finding some ugly bugs we could fix meanwhile, 1.0 would not have had the quality it has right now - kudos! Have fun with this release, and don't forget to tell us the things we screw up (or the things which we did right)!
