Any plans to update to mysql2 library?

[tfrancois]

Would love to see an implementation of this lib to take advantage of the newer mysql2 library on npm. Any plans for this? Please advise. Thank you!

@tfrancois I am not using mysql for a long time and just refreshing this lib but my students may want to add mysql2 if it is better implementation as of now.

@tshemsedinov would they?

It looks like they are compatible (mysql2 implements same contract) so you can easily propose PR with passing reference to it with dependency injection.
