Using 5.1 in production?
Yes, even though MySQL 5.1 is in beta (soon to be RC), our surveys show that folks are using 5.1 already for production use.
If you’re using 5.1 for production apps, I’d appreciate it if you could drop me a line and let me know what motivated you to move up to 5.1. What 5.1 features made you take the plunge? As we’re in the midst of planning features for the upcoming server versions, knowing what you like about 5.1 and what improvements you’d like to see over what we did in 5.1 would be a great help. Shoot me a note at rschumacher@mysql.com.
Thanks!
