Is the list correct?

It shows MySQL-python as 3.0 ready, but MySQL-python page (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/MySQL-python/1.2.5) notes:

> MySQL-3.23 through 5.5 and Python-2.4 through 2.7 are currently supported. Python-3.0 will be supported in a future release. PyPy is supported.

The tool they use to determine py3 support is the following: https://github.com/brettcannon/caniusepython3

They have overridden mysql-python with mysqlclient https://github.com/PyMySQL/mysqlclient-python

> They have overridden mysql-python with mysqlclient

I am aware of this, but the fact that the tool is reporting MySQL-python as 3.0 compatible, when it is not, is worrying.

Overrides are mostly for drop in replacement. So you could use mysqlclient but chance very little in existing code.
