Heh.  Now I'm about to release version 3.0.  I suspect it won't be
ready in time but I suppose that's the sort of thing that can go in after
release, right?  There are a few bugs in 2.3, mostly relating to money.
There are also a few new features.

  - Insert returns None if the user doesn't have select permissions
    on the table.  It can (and does) happen that one has insert but
    not select permissions on a table.
  - Added ntuples() method to query object (brit@druid.net)
  - Corrected a bug related to getresult() and the money type
  - Corrected a but related to negative money amounts
  - Allow update based on primary key if munged oid not available
  - Add many __doc__ strings. (andre@via.ecp.fr)

Hopefully we will have the new DB-SIG interface ready soon and 3.0 will
be released.  In the meantime, the beta versions are generally pretty
stable if anyone wants to use them.  The latest beta is always here.
