About Shift
The Shift project was started in May 2008 as a fork of the apparently defunct CocoaMySQL project. The goal of Shift is to enhance upon the CocoaMySQL project and provide Mac OS X users with a completely free and elegant way to handle their MySQL databases.
Future versions of Shift will see a complete UI overhaul conforming to Leopard's unified interface, increased stability, auto-updating ability via Sparkle, and (hopefully) the addition of full graphical schema building. Keep watching this development blog for more information.
