September 6th for RC2 is fine for me, but I'd like to wait two weeks
before we release a final, though.

We should also do some testing on the new MySQL 4.1.4-gamma. Although I
haven't encountered any (new) problems yet, I think we should ensure
that we are really compatible to this one.

+ 1 for dropping MySQL 4.1.0 support. 4.1.0 is just too experimental and
on top of that some core functionalities haven been changed or extended
since then, for example the character set environment variables (on
which we have to rely) have been added in 4.1.1. Personally, I don't
want to write compatibility code for a single experimental alpha version.

4.1.1 _should_ be OK, but I'm not sure if we should officially support
that version.

I don't like much the idea of working around problems of pre-final
testing software.

I will also check if there are any possible showstoppers in the list.
