Python interface to MySQL
=========================
MySQLdb is an interface to the popular MySQL_ database server for
Python.  The design goals are:
- Compliance with Python database API version 2.0 [PEP-0249]_
- Thread-safety
- Thread-friendliness (threads will not block each other)
MySQL-3.23 through 5.0 and Python-2.3 through 2.4 are currently
supported.
MySQLdb is `Free Software`_.
