I was reading on MySQLdb Python page and cannot seem to find any version information.

Currently I am developing with this MySQLdb module using python 2.5, 2.6 but was wondering if it is compatible with versions such as Python 2.3.4.

In the readme accompanying the download from sourceforge it says: "Versions lower than 2.3 WONT WORK" and this language always worries me.

Did they mean lower than 2.3 or lower than or equal to 2.3?

Any ideas where I can determine this information? Perhaps this question is better asked on superuser?

This seems to make sense on SO, actually. In any case, I don't think it fits here – Michael Mrozek♦ Nov 9 '10 at 15:38
SO? Its not a programming question its a system question? I do not understand why SO would be the best place for this? Is it possible for you to move it? – Chris Nov 9 '10 at 15:56
Not yet; we can't migrate till beta is over. A question about what version of python a given module is compatible with seems like an SO question to me – Michael Mrozek♦ Nov 9 '10 at 18:12
