DBD::mysql test release 4.030_02

Dear Perl and MySQL community,

We're pleased to announce the release of DBD::mysql 4.030_02. This is
a test release, meaning that we are on our way to a full-blown
release. There are changes in this test release as for how
mysql_config is located and handled during installation, and for
handling IPv6 addresses in the DBI connection string. Apart from that
the installation documentation has been updated and reworked.

2015-03-02 Patrick Galbraith, Michiel Beijen, DBI/DBD community (4.030_02)
* Reworked installation documentation in POD.
* Allow use of bracketed IPv6 addresses in connection string (RT70640),
   fix by Tim Mullin @ cPanel).
* Locate mysql_config in path on MSWin32 (RT94838, reported by CHORNY).
* Environment variable DBD_MYSQL_CONFIG actually works now.
* Makefile.PL now correcly handles MariaDB's mysql_config.

Please also note we recently had the 4.030_01 release for which this
is the change log:

2015-01-27 Patrick Galbraith, Michiel Beijen, DBI/DBD community (4.030_01)
* Correct attribution to David Dick #86030: PATCH: adding
statistics_info support
* Test suite can now be run in parallel. Fixes RT98994 reported by DOHERTY.
* Fixes for MySQL 5.6+ and for prepared statement handling (stevenh on gith=
ub).
* Fix for RT100792, New test t/05dbcreate.t fails if user has no permission=
s.
* Fix for bit test (RT68374, [email protected]) CaptTofu added 40bit.t to tes=
t.

If there are no regressions reported on the 4.030_02 release we'll
release a 'stable' 4.031 release this weekend, containing the changes
of the 4.030_01 and 4.030_02 test releases

Also thanks to anyone who has contributed to this project. It=E2=80=99s our
goal to always make sure to make use of so many great bug fixes and
features that users in the community provide.

Regards,

Patrick and Michiel
