Hi Chris The doc says https://pypi.python.org/pypi/mysql-connector-python/1.1.5 MySQL driver written in Python which does not depend on MySQL C client libraries and implements the DB API v2.0 specification (PEP-249). it is pure one and confirms to PEP. though of course i can't say for sure any side impact. /Asaf -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
