First, thank you for everything, guys. I've used High Performance MySQL as my bible through two startup companies, and it's been invaluable.
The one comment I have is that it would help to have more guidance on your releases. I'm installing the latest release in my development environment, but I'm not exactly sure what I'm getting myself into, since the release notes are rather sparse. Can you give a short comment with each release on how ready for prime time you think a release is? I know that it's impossible to know for sure how stable a build is, but some basic guidance like “there are no known issues to stop this from being used in a production environment after testing” would be helpful.
Also, can you please describe your release files in short detail? I'm trying to install on CentOS and can't really distinguish between Percona-XtraDB-1.0.3-5-5.1.34-5.rhel5.x86_64.rpm and MySQL-server-percona-5.1.34-5.rhel5.x86_64.rpm. I'm going with the latter because it's larger :)

On the bright side, installation was very easy once I downloaded the shared, server, and client rpm's and resolved an easy dependency issue. Thanks again.
I inform you that I succesfully installed the DEB packages for Ubuntu on Debian Lenny 5.0, although I have to manually change one thing:
in mysqld_safe you have to modify line 68 where
for dir in “$PATH”
should become
for dir in $PATH
without the double quotes around $PATH. Otherwise it won't find the logger executable 8due to wrong paths looping) and it won't log anything in daemon.log and you are stuck with the init script not working without knowing why.
I think this is a bug

Hi,
we only have 32bit CPUs so 32bit Cent OS (ver 5.1).
Are there any binaries available for such a 32-bit environment please?
Thanks,
Jason

Jason,
We do not do 32bit binaries.

Anyone have builds for MacOS X (snow leopard)?
Much of our development is done on Mac, although production (and QA and staging etc) are all linux.

Are you planning on supporting SSL connections?

Hey. I think you guys should consider just a binary download so that people can run quick benchmarks.
I was going to test this on our new hardware and now have to do a full build which isn't always fun.
Kevin,
We have RPM, deb and just binary, look http://www.percona.com/mysql/5.1.34-5/binary/
Will a windows binary be available sometime soon?

Will the source tarball for 1.03-6 be available?
Cheers!

Luke,
Please find the source tarball on http://www.percona.com/mysql/xtradb/5.1.36-6/source/mysql-5.1.36-xtradb6.tar.gz
