Oracle SQL Developer 3.2 Supports MySQL Community Server 5.6.11

Just installed new version of Oracle SQL Developer 3.2 and confirming that it connects to MySQL Community Server 5.1+ by using MySQL Connector/J is version mysql-connector-java-5.1.25.(JDBC driver for MySQL).

You can get Connector/J here http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/

Follow these instructions (still valid) to connect to MySQL.
