Hi there -

I just wanted to give the developers a heads up that SQLAlchemy 0.6 will
feature a new Sybase ASE dialect that defaults to using Python-Sybase as
its backend.  I finally got a test ASE server up over the weekend and
managed to get a rudimental Sybase conversation going on with this driver.

Was also wondering about the development schedule of the driver, I see the
last release was in 2008.  Are there any plans to add Python 3 support to
this driver ?    When installing via Distribute, if the setup.py file
specifies a "2to3" flag then Distribute will automatically run the source
code through the 2to3 tool before installing.   I've now created Python 3
versions of three different libraries (Mako, Beaker, SQLAlchemy) in this
way and its pretty straightforward.

thanks for your efforts on this driver !
