MySQL Community,
We need your help in delivering a robust and performant Partitioning solution. Please download and test against your scenarios. We are particularly interested in testing with "massive datasets" (multi-terabytes).
We look forward to your feedback, bug-reports, and feature-ideas in the Partitioning forum:

==================================================
MySQL 5.1.3, a new version of the popular Open Source Database
Management System, has been released. The Community Edition is now
available in source and binary form for a number of platforms from our
download pages at
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.1.html and
mirror sites.
This is the first public alpha release of the current MySQL 5.1
development branch, providing an insight to upcoming features. While
some of these are still under heavy development, this release includes
the following new features and changes (in comparison to the current
MySQL 5.0 production release):
- Partitioning, which allows distributing portions of individual tables
across a filesystem, according to rules which can be set when the
table is created. In effect, different portions of a table are stored
as separate tables in different locations - but from the user
point-of-view, the partitioned table is still a single table. See
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/partitioning.html for further
information on this functionality. (Author: Mikael Ronström)
