It opens in a new tab and I receive an error of "Error establishing a database connection." Maybe it is temporary but thought I'd post this in case others have problems connecting to that link.

If you plugin looked good and was modeled after the default WP pages, you shouldn't have any trouble. It is especially easy if you styled it using the dbx boxes.

I hope that Wordpress 2.5 and going forward, there will be a standard by which old plugins won't break as easily -- giving them a much longer lifespan. Good catch on his part.
