Dear DBD::mysql Users and Developers,

I am pleased to announce the release of DBD::mysql 3.0000, now 
available via CPAN!

Included in this release:

* Support for prepared statements!
* Embedded server support
* LIMIT placeholder support (emulated)
* Various Bug Fixes

This release is essentially what has been available as 2.9015, and is 
now the main release. Being that prepared statement support and 
embedded server are new features, support for both is turned off by 
default, and can be compiled into the driver by:

perl Makefile.pl --ps-protocol (to compile in prepared server support)
perl Makefile.pl --force_embedded (to compile in embedded server 
support)

Prior to running 'make test' after building, the test suit can be run 
utilising the compiled-in prepared statement API by exporting:

export MYSQL_SERVER_PREPARE=1

Once either is compiled into the driver and DBD::mysql installed, to 
use either in your application code, please refer to the documentation 
(via perldoc) to use each. There you will find documentation on how to 
take advantage of these new features.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask on the various 
mailing lists.

Thank you for using DBD::mysql!
