I'm pleased to announce version 4.0.0 of Libgda, which is the new stable
version of Libgda.

Short description:
------------------------
Libgda is a (relatively small) database access library:
* a wrapper like ODBC but with more features to access several database
engines
* a general data model to use CVS or XML files
* a meta data extractor (to know all about database objects in a comman way)
* comes with an SQL console application (like mysql, psql or sqlite3
consoles)
* relies on GLib, coded in C, its API is easy to use

Main changes from the previous stable version:
----------------------------------------------------------------
* major improvements: this version is API and ABI incompatible with the V3
versions with and easier and more consistant API
* completely new SQL parser
* much improved meta data retreival
* completely new database providers (drivers) for MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite
and MSAccess files (Oracle and Firebird still need to be re-written)

Tarballs are available at
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/libgda/4.0<http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/libgda/3.99/>
Pease note that Win32 archives are also available at
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/binaries/win32/

To install this new version, you'll need glib, libxml2, and
optionnally libxslt; this version can be installed side by side with
the V3 version.
