Hi *,

after quite some work I am almost ready to release psycopg 2.0.6 but
while I work to fix some remaining issues, please test this first beta
and report any regression to me or to the list. This version should fix
almost all important bugs that were posted during the last two months
for which I had enough information. It also adds support for NULL values
in arrays, introduced in PostreSQL 8.2. An excerpt from the NEWS file
follows; downloads from:

http://initd.org/pub/software/psycopg/psycopg2-2.0.6b1.tar.gz


What's new in psycopg 2.0.6
---------------------------

* Full support for PostgreSQL 8.2, including NULLs in arrays.

* Support for almost all PostgreSQL encodings.

* Better management of times and dates both from Python and in Zope.

* We now have a full list of PostgreSQL error codes available by
  importing the psycopg2.errorcodes module.

* Fixed some small buglets and build glitches:
  - removed double mutex destroy
  - removed all non-constant initializers
  - fixed PyObject_HEAD declarations to avoid memory corruption
    on 64 bit architectures
  - fixed several Python API calls to work on 64 bit architectures
  - applied compatibility macros from PEP 353


Have fun,
federico
