Drizzle: A Focused on the Web MySQL
From the Jenny Craig dept.:
Brian Aker, MySQL's director of architecture, has unveiled Drizzle, a database project aimed at powering websites with massive concurrency as well as trimming superfluous functionality from MySQL.
Drizzle will have a micro-kernel architecture with code being removed from the Drizzle core and moved through interfaces into modules. Akers has already selected particular functionality for removal: modes, views, triggers, prepared statements, stored procedures, query cache, data conversion inserts, access control lists and some data types.

Django 1.0 alpha
From the Hot Software Action! dept.:
In accordance with the Django 1.0 release roadmap, tonight we've released the first "alpha" testing version of Django 1.0. This release includes all of the major features due for inclusion in the final Django 1.0, though some lower-priority items are still scheduled to be included before the 1.0 feature freeze, which will occur with the first beta release next month.

Firebug (Firefox Addon) Gets Dedicated Team
From the Thank You! dept.:
John Resig: I've got a mini-announcement. Starting this week about half of my time at Mozilla is going to be spent driving the direction of the brand-new Mozilla Firebug team. I'm, understandably, quite excited about this proposition. Like all web developers I've found Firebug to be an invaluable tool for web development.
We have a great team forming - I'm going to be joined by:
* Jan Odvarko - Long-time Firebug hacker.
* Rob Campbell - Mozilla hacker, tester, and tool developer. (His announcement post)
We're in a very primordial stage right now - we're meeting at the Firefox Summit at the end of the month and again at the beginning of August for the Firebug Working Group. We'll be setting some major goals for post-Firebug 1.2 development. I highly suspect that we'll be doing some exploratory Firebug extension development as well.

Google's Android platform: not so open after all
From the Who Wha!? dept.:
Google vowed that its Linux-based Android mobile platform would empower enthusiasts and amateur developers, but today we have seen compelling evidence that this is an empty promise. Third-party Android application developers, who have grown increasingly frustrated with the lack of SDK updates, were shocked to discover that Google has been secretly making new versions of the Android SDK available to the Android Developer Challenge (ADC) finalists under non-disclosure agreements.
