Update @ 12:11am on 04/29/2006: Maintenance completed successfully.

This Friday (04/28/2006) at approximately 11pm PDT we will be upgrading MySQL on honeysuckle from MySQL 5.0.18 to 5.0.20a. The anticipated downtime will be approximately 5-10 minutes when the proverbial 'switch' is flipped to the new version.

This release of MySQL incorporates some bug fixes and/or security related updates. We do not expect any incompatible changes from 5.0.18 to 5.0.20a.

For a full list of changes refer to these documents on MySQL's website:
MySQL 5.0.18 -> 5.0.19
MySQL 5.0.19 -> 5.0.20
MySQL 5.0.20 -> 5.0.20a

If you have any questions, feel free to open up a trouble ticket.
