We are proud to announce that MySQL Workbench has reached GA (General Availability)
status and the final version – 5.0.19 – is available on our mirrors.

We managed to get another 32 bugs fixed since the last Release Candidate and hopefully there aren’t many still hidden in our code. We are planning to release a new Version of Workbench every three weeks so if new bugs are found and reported we’ll fix them and supply a improved build quickly.

Get a copy of our OSS Edition from Servers now and start designing your databases.
If you want all the time-saving features (including direct connection to DB, Validation of your models, …) you could invest 99 USD on the Standard Edition – please go to http://shop.mysql.com and get your license there! (Our web-shop is currently being prepared so Workbench will be available there at 4pm PST)
