Nice to hear it's still being developed. Personally, I've moved on to other, better solutions that are client-side. HeidiSQL (http://www.heidisql.com/ http://www.heidisql.com/) works well over SSH for Windows, or Sequel Pro for Mac (http://www.sequelpro.com http://www.sequelpro.com). Being able to fastly import and export data, easier query manipulation, syntax highlighting and much better table manipulation. Oh, and MySQL Workbench is a very mature product and is great for modeling and syncing.

Would have been nice to link instead to the release notes for this version. I assumed that something amazing had happened since the last one, but it's nothing too mindblowing.

  Not since the last one, but it appears the one before it had a pretty decent sized vulnerability. http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/security/PMASA-2011-2.php http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/security/PMASA-2011-2.ph...

I've been using Navicat, a native app for this purpose. Basically mySQL workbench but nicer to use, or that Sequel Pro thing but with more functionality. It's a very polished piece of software, and I highly recommend it. http://www.navicat.com/ http://www.navicat.com/

phpMyAdmin needs a lot of work in my opinion, it feels incredibly outdated. SequelPro is probably the best MySQL front end I have ever used.

HeidiSQL ( http://www.heidisql.com/ http://www.heidisql.com/ ) has interesting statistics on its home page: MySQL version usage* MySQL 5.1 44.6% MySQL 5.0 42.8% MySQL 5.5 5.1% MySQL 4.1 4.2% MySQL 4.0 2.0% MySQL 3.23 0.7% MySQL 6.0 0.3% MySQL 5.4 0.1% MySQL 5.2 0.1% MySQL 5.6 0.0% * Reported by 62028 HeidiSQL users over the last month, which have the statistics feature enabled in their preferences dialog. I have a WAMP distro called WampDeveloper that uses MySQL 5.1 and have had a few emails about why I don't use 5.5... Mostly because MySQL (and PHP) have had a really bad history of having their current "general release" versions of being beta quality. To skip the headaches, you should run 1 major version behind. The stats seem to back this up nicely. There are just about as many people using 5.5 as 4.1. P.S., HeidiSQL is written in Delphi / Pascal and is GPLv2.
