XtraDB storage engine release 1.0.3-5

Today we glad to announce release 1.0.3-5 of our XtraDB storage engine.

Here is a list of enhancements in this release:

• move to MySQL 5.1.34
• removed rw_lock patch, so we now use Google’s rw_locks
• fix crash after upgrade 5.1.31 -> 5.1.33
• fix mysql-test

Percona XtraDB 1.0.3-5 available in source and several binary packages.

XtraDB is compatible with existing InnoDB tables (unless you used innodb_extra_undoslots) and we are going to keep compatibility in further releases. We are open for features requests for new engine and ready to accept community patches. You can monitor Percona’s current tasks and further plans on the Percona XtraDB Launchpad project. You can also request features and report bugs there. Also we have setup two maillists for General discussions and for Development related questions.
