With great pleasure I today noticed that we finally have daily snapshot builds of all current versions of the MySQL server source trees (4.0-5.1) available on
http://snaps.mysql.com/ again. Unfortunately this has not been the case for quite some time - a few issues that caused the 5.0 and 5.1 snapshot builds/tests to fail have now finally been resolved. I also made some changes to the build script that performs the snapshot builds, e.g. to use the Perl-based test suite where available instead of the Shell-based one, which is going to phased out in 5.1 anyway. Let's hope that from now on the snapshot builds will now be available more frequently again, I'll keep a close eye on that.
Sorry for the long delay, I know that some of you depend on receiving updated source tarball snapshots on a regular basis instead of having to use the free BK client...
