Announcement
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
After 5 months, 5 beta releases and 4 release candidate versions,
|
|
the phpMyAdmin developers are pleased to announce the availability
|
|
of phpMyAdmin 2.2.0.
|
|
|
|
phpMyAdmin is intended to handle the administration of MySQL over
|
|
the Web. The project was started by Tobias Ratschiller in 1998,
|
|
and is now one of the most popular PHP script used worldwide.
|
|
|
|
(Un)fortunately, Tobias then stopped to work on phpMyAdmin last
|
|
year: the last version (2.1.0) was released on 6. August 2000. In
|
|
the mean time, there were many suggestions and good ideas around,
|
|
as well as a security advisory.
|
|
|
|
That is why on 31st March 2001, Olivier Müller (Switzerland),
|
|
supported by Marc Delisle (Québec), Loïc Chapeaux (France) and a
|
|
team of 8 other developers re-started the phpmyadmin project on
|
|
SourceForge.net, with the authorization of the original package
|
|
maintainer. And now, after 5 months of patches, bugfixes, new
|
|
features and testing, the version 2.2.0 is finally ready.
|
|
|
|
Available at http://phpmyadmin.sourceforge.net, it includes the
|
|
following highlights:
