ZMySQL and MySQLdb Versions
Howdy! When I go to the download section on zope.org looking for a way to connect Zope and MySQL I can find the following: - Zope MySQL Database Adapter, 2000/07/20 by mordred (ZMySQLDA-1.2.0.tar.gz) - ZMySQLDA, 2000/07/20 by MikeP (ZMySQLDA-1.1.3-nonbin.tar.gz) - An Interface for MySQL, 2000/07/20 by adustman (MySQLdb-0.1.2.tar.gz) Now how should anybody new to Zope know what to use? Especially when ZMySQLDA goes up to at least version 2.0.0 (I tried to look it up but couldn't connect to starship.python.net) and MySQLdb at least to version 0.2.1. I'm still using ZMySQLDA 1.1.3 with MySQLdb 0.1.3 which can't be found in the download section. Confusing, isn't it? What could we possibly do about it? Ragnar

I recently got confused myself about even which of the above I am using on my system and in the process complained to Andy Dustman about a (small) bug in mordred's adapter... ;) MySQLdb is a python wrapper, designed to be used from plain python. But some of it's components are *used* (and required) by mordred's DA. To add to the fuzz the IMHO lates and greates ZMySQLDA (2.0.0a1) is on Andy Dustmans website and AFAIK *not* linked from zope.org http://dustman.net/andy/python/ HTH, Stefan
