 PyGreSQL is a python module that interfaces to a PostgreSQL database. It
 embeds the PostgreSQL query library to allow easy use of the powerful
 PostgreSQL features from a Python script.
 
-PyGreSQL 2.0 was developed and tested on a NetBSD 1.3_BETA system.  It is

-I changed the version to 2.0 and updated the code for Python 1.5 and
-PostgreSQL 6.2.1.  While I was at it I upgraded the code to use full ANSI
-style prototypes and changed the order of arguments to connect.
