SQLite version 3.6.17 is now available on the SQLite website:

     http://www.sqlite.org/
     http://www.sqlite.org/download.html

This is the first release of SQLite after 100% branch test coverage of  
the SQLite core was achieved.  The effort to bring SQLite up to 100%  
branch test coverage spanned about 10 months and found and fixed many  
obscure bugs.  This release of SQLite is believe to be the most robust  
and error-free of any release to date.  The intent of the SQLite  
developers is that all future releases will continue to have 100%  
branch test coverage.  Ongoing work is extending the test suite to  
provide 100% coverage to extensions (such as FTS3 and RTREE) and the  
operating-system specific backends.

Beginning with this release, it is possible to use Virtual Tables and  
Shared Cache Mode at the same time.  In all prior releases, one could  
do one or the other but not both.

This release also makes a new API available:  The sqlite3_strnicmp()  
function does string comparison using the same algorithm used  
internally by SQLite to compare identifiers.  In other words, it  
ignores case on ASCII characters, but treats case as significant for  
non-ASCII characters.  sqlite3_strnicmp() is intended for use by  
extensions.

As always, please let us know if you encounter any problems.
