Changes in MySQL Connector/Python 1.2.3 (2014-08-22)

   Functionality Added or Changed

     * Connector/Python is now compatible with Django 1.7. (Bug
       #72746, Bug #19225481)

   Bugs Fixed

     * Negative timedelta values were incorrectly converted to and
       from Python. Thanks to Vitali Graf for the patch. (Bug #72493,
       Bug #18694096)

     * Fetching results from a prepared statement that returned many
       columns could produce an error. (Bug #72602, Bug #18742429)

     * Previously, a RuntimeError exception was raised when a Django
       application was inactive for a while. Now, the Django backend
       verifies that the database connection is still valid each time
       a database request is made. (Bug #72545, Bug #18843153)

     * Django TimeField values of 00:00:00 were incorrectly converted
       to NULL because Python considered that value equal to False.
       (Bug #72732, Bug #18956789)

     * An exception was raised when a cursor tried to convert
       LINESTRING data as UTF-8 data. Now such values are returned
       without decoding. (Bug #73187, Bug #19164627)

     * With Python 2, Connector/Python could truncate digits of
       floating-point values. (Bug #73266, Bug #19225481)
