Dear MySQL users,

MySQL Connector/Net 6.8.8 is a maintenance release for the 6.8.x
series of the .NET driver for MySQL. It can be used for production
environments.

It is appropriate for use with MySQL server versions 5.5-5.7.

It is now available in source and binary form from
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/net/#downloadsandmirrorsites
(note that not all mirror sites may be up to date at this point-if you
can't find this version on some mirror, please try again later or choose
another download site.)

Changes in MySQL Connector/Net 6.8.8 (2016-07-01)

Functionality Added or Changed

* Added TLS support for TLSv1.1 and TLSv1.2 when connecting
to MySQL Server 5.7.

Bugs Fixed

* Improvements were made to how the connector handles
aborted connections. (Bug #23346197, Bug #80997)

* With Entity Framework 6, building a table with a primary
key would not enclose the key name in quotes, which
caused a syntax error. (Bug #22696180, Bug #22696207, Bug
#76292)

* The connector was not disposing the transaction returned
by DBContext.Database.BeginTransaction() when exiting a
using code block. (Bug #22514355, Bug #22514363)

* The connector did not attempt to enumerate stored
procedures via mysql.proc(). Instead it looked up stored
procedures in INFORMATION_SCHEMA.ROUTINES. This could
have led to performance degradation in certain scenarios.
(Bug #20960373, Bug #23528155, Bug #74116)
