This release fixes a few bugs, some preexisting, some introduced in  
0.5.0, and one introduced in 0.5.1.    Upgrading is recommended if you  
were affected by any of the bugs mentioned below.

There is also a refinement to the "delete-orphan on many-to-many/many- 
to-one" policy, which will make itself apparent via warnings only in  
this release.  The warnings can be resolved using new configuration  
options on relation() which establish the parent side of the  
relationship as "single parent".

Also, PDF output with sphinx is busted at the moment, the download  
link on the site has been repaired but the file you'll get is the  
0.5.0 file.

0.5.2
======

- orm
     - Further refined 0.5.1's warning about delete-orphan cascade
       placed on a many-to-many relation.   First, the bad news:
       the warning will apply to both many-to-many as well as
       many-to-one relations.  This is necessary since in both
       cases, SQLA does not scan the full set of potential parents
       when determining "orphan" status - for a persistent object
       it only detects an in-python de-association event to establish
       the object as an "orphan".  Next, the good news: to support
       one-to-one via a foreign key or assocation table, or to
       support one-to-many via an association table, a new flag
       single_parent=True may be set which indicates objects
       linked to the relation are only meant to have a single parent.
       The relation will raise an error if multiple parent-association
       events occur within Python.

     - Adjusted the attribute instrumentation change from 0.5.1 to
       fully establish instrumentation for subclasses where the mapper
       was created after the superclass had already been fully
       instrumented. [ticket:1292]

     - Fixed bug in delete-orphan cascade whereby two one-to-one
       relations from two different parent classes to the same target
       class would prematurely expunge the instance.

     - Fixed an eager loading bug whereby self-referential eager
       loading would prevent other eager loads, self referential or not,
       from joining to the parent JOIN properly.  Thanks to Alex K
       for creating a great test case.

     - session.expire() and related methods will not expire() unloaded
       deferred attributes.  This prevents them from being needlessly
       loaded when the instance is refreshed.

     - query.join()/outerjoin() will now properly join an aliased()
       construct to the existing left side, even if query.from_self()
       or query.select_from(someselectable) has been called.
       [ticket:1293]

- sql
     - Further fixes to the "percent signs and spaces in column/table
        names" functionality. [ticket:1284]

- mssql
     - Restored convert_unicode handling. Results were being passed
       on through without conversion. [ticket:1291]

     - Really fixing the decimal handling this time. [ticket:1282].

     - Modified table reflection code to use only kwargs when
       constructing tables. [Ticket:1289]
