Yes, and it's also what Django people recommend: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/ref/databases/#mysql-db-api-drivers As for mysqldb and Python3, the only way is to use a Python 3 fork such as this one: https://github.com/clelland/MySQL-for-Python-3 I wouldn't like using different versions of Python modules depending on the Python version, and therefore, python-mysql.connector / python3-mysql.connector would be preferred. However, it'd be nice if *all* projects could switch to that, and not just Neutron, otherwise, we'd be just adding a new dependency, which isn't great. Also, about eventlet, there's been long threads about switching to something else like asyncio. Wouldn't it be time to also do that (at the same time)?
