[Availability]
Currently in universe

[Rationale]
Dependency for Openstack Heat's Liberty release.

[Security]
No security history

[Quality Assurance]
Package works out of the box with no prompting. There are no major bugs in Ubuntu and there are no major bugs in Debian. Unit tests are run during build.

[Dependencies]
All are in main

[Standards Compliance]
FHS and Debian Policy compliant.

[Maintenance]
Simple python package that the Ubuntu Server Team will take care of.

[Background]
python-pymysql is a pure-Python MySQL client library. The goal of PyMySQL is to be a drop-in replacement for MySQLdb and work on CPython, PyPy, IronPython and Jython.

If I understand correctly, if python-pymysql is going to be promoted to main, I think we'll need to work on demoting python-mysqldb to universe and take care of any reverse dependencies (using python-pymysql as a replacement).
