A couple of days ago I received an email from Steven Davis. He proposed some brilliant enhancements to the MySQL session state store provider. Thanks to him, I am able to provide a new release of it today.  
  
New features he incorporated into the provider are:  

- added cluster db support: the ability to retry within a cluster of servers, the web.config can then use connectionStringList="<ConnectionString1>,<ConnectionString2>"
- fixed timeout Minutes to TotalMinutes
- changed namespace to Kimpel.MySqlSessionDll to make debugging clearer

Release v.03 now also supports MySQL Connector/Net 6.2. I also added a SQL script to create the necessary sessions table.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Free [download](https://www.kimpel.com/FileDownloader.aspx?file=MySqlSessionStateStore v.0.3.zip).
