+
+Dateline 16 October 2001, Uppsala, Sweden
+
+Long promised by MySQL AB and long awaited by our users,
+MySQL 4.0 is now available in alpha version for download from
+@uref{http://www.mysql.com/} and our mirrors.
+
+Main new features of MySQL 4.0 are geared towards our existing
+business and community users, enhancing MySQL (TM) as the
+solution for mission-critical, heavy load database systems.
+Other new features target the users of embedded databases.

+@subsection Stepwise Rollout
+
+The rollout of MySQL 4.0 will come in several steps, with
+the first version labelled 4.0.0 already containing most of the
+new features. Additional features will be incorporated into
+MySQL 4.0.1, 4.0.2 onwards; very probably within two months,
+MySQL 4.0 will be labelled beta. Further new features will then
+be added in MySQL 4.1, which is targetted for alpha release
+in December/January.
+
+
+@node 4.0 Nutshell Development use possible immediately, 4.0 Nutshell Embedded MySQL, 4.0 NutShell Stepwise Rollout, MySQL 4.0 In A Nutshell
+@subsection Development use possible immediately
+
+Users are not recommended to switch their production systems
+to MySQL 4.0 until it is released in beta version later Q4/2001.
+However, even the initial release has passed our extensive
+test suite without any errors on any of the platforms we test on.
+Due to the large number of new features, we thus recommend
+MySQL 4.0 even in alpha form for development use, with
+the release schedule of MySQL 4.0 being such that it will
+reach stable state before the deployment of user applications
+now under development.
+
+
+@node 4.0 Nutshell Embedded MySQL, 4.0 Nutshell Other features, 4.0 Nutshell Development use possible immediately, MySQL 4.0 In A Nutshell
+@subsection Embedded MySQL
+
+With @code{libmysqld}, the realm of applications suitable for MySQL
+expands vastly. Using the embedded MySQL server library, one can
+embed MySQL into various applications and electronics devices, where
+the end user has no knowledge of there actually being an underlying
+database. Embedded MySQL is ideal for use behind
+the scenes in internet appliances, public kiosks, turn-key
+hardware/ software combination units, high performance internet
+servers, self-contained databases distributed on CD-ROM etc.
+
+Many embedded MySQL users will benefit from the
+@emph{dual licensing scheme} of MySQL, where besides the GPL license
+also commercial licensing is available for those not wishing to be bound
+by the GPL. The embedded MySQL library uses the same interface as the normal
+client library, so it is convenient and easy to use.
+
+
+@node 4.0 Nutshell Other features, 4.0 Nutshell Future features, 4.0 Nutshell Embedded MySQL, MySQL 4.0 In A Nutshell
+@subsection Other features available from MySQL 4.0.0
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item
+MySQL 4.0 further increases @emph{the speed of MySQL} in a number of areas,
+such as bulk @code{INSERT}s, searching on packed indices, creation of
+@code{FULLTEXT} indices as well as @code{COUNT(DISTINCT)}.
+
+@item
+The table handler @code{InnoDB} is now offered as a feature of the
+standard MySQL server, including full support for @code{transactions}
+and @code{row-level locking}.
+
+@item
+MySQL 4.0 will support secure traffic between the client and the server,
+greatly increasing security against malicious intrusion and unauthorised
+access. Web applications being a cornerstone of MySQL use, web developers
+have been able to use SSL to secure the traffic between the
+the end user browser and the Web application, be it written in
+PHP, Perl, ASP or using any other web development tool. However,
+the traffic between the development tool and the mysqld server
+process has been protected only by virtue of them being processes
+residing on computers within the same firewall. In MySQL 4.0,
+the @emph{mysqld} server daemon process can itself use
+@code{Secure Sockets Layer} (@code{SSL}),
+thus enabling secure traffic to MySQL databases from, say, a Windows
+application residing outside the firewall.
+
+@item
+Our German, Austrian and Swiss users will note that we have a new character
+set latin_de which corrects the @emph{German sorting order}, placing German
+Umlauts in the same order as German telephone books.
+
+@item
+Features to simplify @code{migration} from other database systems to MySQL
+include @code{TRUNCATE TABLE} (like in Oracle) and @code{IDENTITY} as a
+synonym for automatically incremented keys (like in Sybase). Many users will
+also be happy to learn that MySQL now supports the @code{UNION} statement,
+a long awaited standard SQL feature.
+
+@item
+In the process of building features for new users, we have not forgotten
+requests by the community of loyal users.
+We have multi-table @code{DELETE} statements.
+By adding support for @code{symbolic linking} to @code{MyISAM} on the table
+level (and not just database level as before), as well as by enabling symlink
+handling by default on Windows, we hope to show that we take enhancement
+requests seriously.
+Functions like @code{SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS} and @code{FOUND_ROWS()} makes it
+possible to know how many rows a query would have returned without a
+@code{LIMIT} clause.

+
+@node 4.0 Nutshell Future features, 4.0 Nutshell 4.1 development release, 4.0 Nutshell Other features, MySQL 4.0 In A Nutshell
+@subsection Future MySQL 4.0 features
+
+For the upcoming MySQL 4.0 releases (4.0.1, 4.0.2 and onwards), expect
+the following features now still under development:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item
+Mission-critical, heavy-load users of MySQL will appreciate
+the additions to our replication system and our online hot backup.
+Later versions of 4.0 will include @code{fail-safe replication};
+already in existing 4.0.0, the @code{LOAD DATA FROM MASTER} command
+will soon automate slave setup. The @code{online backup} will make
+it easy to add a new replication slave without taking down
+the master, and have a very low performance penalty on
+update-heavy systems.
+
+@item
+A convenience feature for Database Administrators is that
+mysqld parameters (startup options) can soon be set without
+taking down the servers.
+
+@item
+The new @code{FULLTEXT} search properties of MySQL 4.0 enables the use
+of @code{FULLTEXT} indexing of large text masses with both binary and
+natural language searching logic. Users can customise minimal word
+length and define their own stop word lists in any human language,
+enabling a new set of applications to be built on MySQL.
+
+@item
+Many read-heavy applications will benefit from
+further increased speed through the rewritten @code{key cache}.
+
+@item
+Many developers will also be happy to see the @code{MySQL command help}
+in the client.
+
+
+@node 4.0 Nutshell 4.1 development release,  , 4.0 Nutshell Future features, MySQL 4.0 In A Nutshell
+@subsection MySQL 4.1, the following development release
+
+Internally, through a new .frm file format for table definitions,
+MySQL 4.0 lays the foundation for the new features of MySQL 4.1,
+such as @code{nested subqueries}, @code{stored procedures}, and
+@code{foreign key integrity rules}, which form the top of the
+wish list for many of our customers. Along with those, we will
+also include simpler additions, such as
+multi-table @code{UPDATE} statements.
+
+After those additions, critics of MySQL have to be more imaginative
+than ever in pointing out deficiencies in the MySQL Database
+Management System. For long already known for its stability,
+speed, and ease of use, MySQL will then match the requirement
+checklist of very demanding buyers.

+
+The GPL license is contagious in the sense that when a program is linked
+to a GPL program the resulting product must also be released under GPL
+lest you break the license terms and forfeit your right to use the GPL
+program altogether.
+
+You need a commercial license:
+
+@itemize @bullet
+@item
+When you link a program with code from the MySQL server or from GPL
+released clients and don't want the resulting product to be GPL, maybe
+because you want to build a commercial product or keep the added non-GPL
+code closed source for other reasons. When purchasing commercial licenses,
+you are not using the MySQL server under GPL even though it's the same
+code. You need one license per installation of the MySQL server.
+
+@item
+When you distribute a non-GPL application that ONLY works with the MySQL
+server and ships it with MySQL. This type of solution is actually
+considered to be linking even if it's done over a network.
+
+@item
+When you distribute copies of the MySQL server without providing the
+source code as required under the GPL license.
+
+@item
+When you want to support the further development of the MySQL database
+even if you don't formally need a commercial license. Another good way
+of contributing to the MySQL development while getting something useful
+ in return, is to purchase support directly from MySQL AB.
