A note about MySQL 5 Contest eligibility…

There are some people who haven’t filled in have their email address or complete name for their mysql.com accounts. Those accounts are used for forum activity, the bugs system, and right now to identify our lucky MySQL 5 Contest winners, which makes it rather important that the basic information in there is complete and correct.

Of course, if you don’t want to fill in those details, that’s fine too, but unfortunately it will rule you out as a possible winner. If Kaj and I don’t know your name or your email address, what can we do… to check and update your profile, go to http://www.mysql.com/profile/.

Next week we will give away the last weekly iPod nano, as well as announe the three grand prize winners. As you see in the contest rules, the grand prize winners not only have to make bug reports for MySQL 5, but also get their blog aggregated on Planet MySQL. So the stakes are higher!

I reckon there are some excellent candidates… but everything is open until next week!
