You can now download MySQL 5.2 Alpha
binaries<http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.2.html>that contain
the new Falcon
storage <http://dev.mysql.com/doc/falcon/en/index.html> engine from the
MySQL web site. Right now, we've got Linux and Windows builds only, but will
be expanding that support shortly. So give our new transactional storage
engine a try and let us know what you think via this site or the new Falcon
forum.
