SQLGrinder 2 Beta 13 Now Available


The 13th and hopefully final beta version of SQLGrinder 2, the completely-rewritten version of our database development tool, was posted today. Requested features not yet added have been moved to later releases.

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

SQLGrinder is near release candidate status. Please make sure that you report any remaining issues, problems, crashes, etc. so that they can be fixed. This beta version is a non-debug build and carries the usual "use at your own risk" warnings.

SQLGrinder 2 is a Universal Binary, and will work on both PowerPC and the new Intel Macs.

SQLGrinder 2 Beta 13 can be downloaded here.
Pricing and availability for SQLGrinder 2

Pricing for the new version has been set at $59. During the beta period however, SQLGrinder 2 can be purchased for the current price of $49.95 with purchasers receiving a free upgrade to the final version once available. Owners of the current version can purchase an upgrade for only $19 by sending their current registration information to upgrades@sqlgrinder.com.

Shortly before the final version of SQLGrinder 2, those who submitted upgrade requests and who purchased their copies during the beta will be emailed upgrade coupons.

SQLGrinder 2 for Mac OS X is currently available for a limited time as an unlimited beta version, which anyone can use for free. Because of this, registration information does not need to be entered to use it.

The beta of SQLGrinder 2 can be downloaded from the Advenio web site.
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.
