Description:
MySQL Connector NET 6.9.7 does not work for Visual Studio 2015. We cannot connect to MySQL Server via Server Explorer window, on Visual Studio Enterprise 2015, even MySQL connector NET 6.9.7 has been installed.

How to repeat:
Install Visual Studio Enterprise 2015, install MySQL Communit 5.6.23.0 version, and install MySQL connector NET 6.9.7.
Open Visual Studio Enterprise 2015, open Server Explorer window, and try to connect to database. MySQL option is not on the list.

Suggested fix:
