MySQL Workbench 5.2.4 Alpha Released

Dear MySQL Users,

we're proud to announce the availability of the next Alpha release of
MySQL Workbench 5.2.

This is the first release of WB 5.2 that enables part of the upcoming
administrative feature set. The following tasks can be performed in
the WB 5.2.4 release.

* Registration of Server Profiles
* Start/Stop of the MySQL Server
* Configuration File Edition (my.cnf / my.ini)
* Show Connections and Server-Variables

Further we have added the long awaited SSH Tunnel features that
enables MySQL connections to machines where only SSH access is
available.

Select the new Connection Method "Standard TCP/IP over SSH" in the
Connection Management dialog and fill out the SSH connection
information.

Please find more information about the new features on our

MySQL Workbench Developer Central Website

Several bugs have been fixed in this release and we are still
working on adding the missing features to reach Beta phase.

Please keep in mind that this is still an alpha version so be advised to
not use it for production data! Also please note, MySQL Workbench files
saved with version 5.2 cannot be opened with previous versions of our
program.


Source code and binary packages of MySQL Workbench 5.2.4 OSS for  
Windows,
Mac OS X and a small selection of Linux distributions are freely  
available
