Changing the version number of the next CUBRID release

I would like to announce the changes we have made regarding the version number of the next CUBRID release. First time when I wrote about the Roadmap for the next release, I mentioned that it was going to be CUBRID 3.2.

The next version is expected to introduce many new features and enhancements:

• 62 new SQL syntax extensions for better MySQL Compatibility
• Improved Index Enhancement for higher performance
• Easier High-Availability feature for more convenient and easy-to-use configurations

This is why we decided to increment the minor version digit, instead of the maintenance number. So, the next version will be CUBRID 4.0 or the full version name - CUBRID 2008 R4.0, which will probably make in April this year. At this moment this is only a tentative forecast.
