As you might have seen I'm adding back the commits that were added between 4.041 and 4.042 piece by piece to the master branch. I'm trying to prevent breaking stuff so I'm moving slowly. I'm not expecting you to do any rebasing or sending new pull requests of code which we had already. I'll be applying the patches myself. Also, please note that the huge Travis setup and TLS fixes were really good and I absolutely am going to add this back to master. That said, I merged https://github.com/perl5-dbi/DBD-mysql/pull/181 which changes the bug tracker location to Github in the META.yml this morning; we don't need to merge everything exactly in order and accepting this pull request really does not make it impossible to later add the patches between 4.041 and 4.042 back to the code base. And of course we *NEED* to support libmysqlclient of MySQL 8 and also MariaDB, I can't see us making a new release to CPAN that would *NOT* support this. -- Michiel
