The current versions of other things, like PBXT and XtraDB Daniel> would also be helpful. The files are now mostly mirrored. It's now after midnight, local time, and I won't be around the rest of the week, so I've gone ahead and activated the Release Notes, Changelog, and Download pages: http://kb.askmonty.org/en/mariadb-529-release-notes http://kb.askmonty.org/en/mariadb-529-changelog http://downloads.askmonty.org/mariadb/5.2.9 The Release Notes page is just a skeleton. It should probably be updated with some details. The Changelog and Download pages are complete. Colin: Can you coordinate with the developers on any changes to the Release Notes and then send out an announcement email once that page is ready? I'll check my email periodically and once I see your announcement email I will update the rss feed (that is, unless you want to do it).
