The 9th beta version of SQLGrinder 2, the completely-rewritten version of our database development tool, was posted today.

Please see the release notes page for the full list of changes.

This release resolves a couple of recently found issues.

SQLGrinder is quickly approaching release candidate status. Please make sure that you report any remaining issues, problems, crashes, etc. so that they can be fixed. The documentation is also nearing completion as well, so the next release should have at least the first edit of it. Finally, the samples and instructions for the SQLGrinder AppleScript Dev Kit are pretty much done, so expect that soon as well.

Also, just a reminder that beta builds are full debug builds and aren't optimized for speed, size, etc. yet, and carry the usual "use at your own risk" warnings.

SQLGrinder Beta 9 can be downloaded here.

Finally, you can subscribe to the release notes page, which now has an RSS feed, to stay up-to-date on what's changed and what known issues there might be.
