Changes in release 3.22.8
-------------------------

   * Czech character sets should now work much better.  You must also
     install
     `http://www.mysql.com/Downloads/Patches/czech-3.22.8-patch'.  This
     patch should also be installed if you are using a character set
     with uses `my_strcoll()'!  The patch should always be safe to
     install (for any system), but as this patch changes ISAM internals
     it's not yet in the default distribution.

   * `DATE_ADD()' and `DATE_SUB()' didn't work with group functions.

   * `mysql' will now also try to reconnect on `USE DATABASE' commands.

   * Fix problem with `ORDER BY' and `LEFT JOIN' and `const' tables.

   * Fixed problem with `ORDER BY' if the first `ORDER BY' column was a
     key and the rest of the `ORDER BY' columns wasn't part of the key.

   * Fixed a big problem with `OPTIMIZE TABLE'.

   * MySQL clients on NT will now by default first try to connect with
     named pipes and after this with TCP/IP.

   * Fixed a problem with `DROP TABLE' and `mysqladmin shutdown' on
     Windows (a fatal bug from 3.22.6).

   * Fixed problems with `TIME columns' and negative strings.

   * Added an extra thread signal loop on shutdown to avoid some error
     messages from the client.

   * MySQL now uses the next available number as extension for the
     update log file.

   * Added patches for UNIXWARE 7.
