We're covering 4.x through whatever we know a lot about, so we do mention 5.1 a lot. However I don't think it's all that helpful to look ahead too much. Sometimes when a book does that, the product goes a different way or features get cancelled, and even if they don't, by the time future features are actually in use they tend to have better documentation and the book's speculation doesn't really help much, and it just looks out of date :) Cluster is huge subject, really a whole different piece of software. We have a section on it in the Scaling and HA chapter, but I think we're basically going to try to help people decide what scenarios it's good for. We couldn't cover Cluster in-depth unless the book were dedicated to it. MySQL has a book on it, which is good as far as it goes, but it's kinda small. There's definitely a need for a High Performance MySQL Cluster book, but it won't be this one. Yep, this is the secret project.

Whats the target MySQL version? I presume you guys will cover 4.1 through 5.1? From the TOC I guess replication vs. ndb cluster vs. other cluster are lurking in chapter 10? Maybe a bit loaded as a single chapter? Awesome news. Whats the target MySQL version? I presume you guys will cover 4.1 through 5.1?

That is awesome news. I use the "first edition" of this book all the time, but it is quite dated. I can't wait to see it. Was this the big secret project or is there something else?? Baron,
