I would like to announce release 0.8 of PyODB. This adds a feature request
to allow connections directly to the ODBC database driver using connection
strings.

PyODB is a Python module and provides a simplified set of bindings
to unixODBC (http://www.unixodbc.org) allowing fast and easy development
of open database applications.

The module supports multiple data source connections with the following
connection methods; execute(), fetch(), disconnect(), begin(), commit()
and rollback().

The software has been developed on a Linux environment using Python 2.x
and SWIG (http://www.swig.org). The module has been tested on Linux and
Solaris platforms using databases MySQL, Informix and PostgreSQL but
in theory should work on any platform supporting unixODBC and an ODBC
database driver.

To download the release visit http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyodb
