Excellent point. Hm. Maybe we should just go with 'sqlite', instead. Anyway, at the moment, there's 'db.sqlite' all checked in and working on a branch, at svn+ssh://[EMAIL PROTECTED]/python/branches/sqlite-integration or, if you use a readonly version http://svn.python.org/python/branches/sqlite-integration (you can use 'svn switch URL' to change a current trunk checkout to the branch without having to checkout a whole new version). It is from sqlite 2.1.3. Gerhard is cutting a 2.2.0 which reduces the requirement for the version of sqlite3 that is required. Currently, it needs 3.2.2 or later. There's tests (which pass), setup.py magic to find a correct sqlite3 version, and the like. Still to do: Windows buildproj Documentation Upgrade to the updated pysqlite once it's out maybe switch from db.sqlite to just sqlite (trivial enough change).
