This could be due to that I have large Knowledgebase and a prospective client read that what are versions on installed software on server, therefore, they don't send me mail asking this. But it would be great if we could have this added to the server.

IMO this is by itself a good reason for providing MySQL latest version to your customers. MySQL's stored procedures are something I, for example, would be interested in trying out. esseemme

You could always change the port on the client apps you are using ... but while this is simple in rich-client apps, I'm not sure this is supported in all libraries (OLEDB, ODBC, managed). But really, there would be no reason to have both .... MySQL 5.0 provides everything that version 4.0 provided. esseemme

It is best to wait. - Lets not get the exotic customer at the cost of the average client.
