MySQL6 6.0.5 alpha

MySQL6 - Next generation of MySQL.

The next generation of the world's most popular open source database platform is ready for pre-production testing. MySQL 6.0 supplies more reliability, performance, and ease-of-use enhancements, starting with the new Falcon transactional storage engine.

Falcon is currently an Alpha release and should not be used in production environments. Falcon is currently only supported within a special fork of the MySQL release, termed MySQL-6.0-falcon. This release is not considered ready for production. The mysql-6.0-falcon tree is provided only for testing and evaluation of the Falcon storage engine.
