I’ve just put up the current “add node” patch… which is like, totally experimental and kills kittens… but could be interesting for people to have a look at as it progresses. Still lots of work before production ready – but people here at the MySQL Conf have said they’re interested in looking at the code for it.
You can grab a combined patch or the quilt series from:

Applies to 5.1… at least on a few weeks ago tree.
