I would have waited for a pysqlite 2.2 release until I found a good API 
for logging for pysqlite (mainly for reporting exceptions in Python 
callbacks). I will probably defer the logging stuff to pysqlite 2.3 and 
release pysqlite 2.2 soon with the features currently in SVN.

I know that pushing new things into Python 2.5 should happen soon, if at 
all. So *if* pysqlite should go into Python, I propose that I release 
pysqlite 2.2.0 and we integrate that into the Python alpha release.

If this is going to happen, I want it to happen under a different 
package name than "pysqlite2" and it's probably a good idea to skip 
"sqlite" too, because there are still users of the SQLite 1.x API (*) 
and this is the package name of that API. OTOH, "sqlite" would be the 
natural name if it ends up in Python. Perhaps "sqlitedb" ...

Extensive unit tests are available, as is a reference manual in ReST format.

(*) Although if they're really using pysqlite 0.x/1.x then it's unlikely 
they'll switch to Python 2.5 with their applications.
