Now fully recovered after a nasty case of bit-rot ...

Announcing guile-pg-0.06
========================

Guile-pg is a Guile module giving access to PostgreSQL databases via the
libpq frontend to PostgreSQL.

This version of guile-pg has been tested against Guile version 1.3.4 and Guile
version 1.4 (pre-release) with PostgreSQL Version 7.0 on Intel Linux and SPARC
Solaris 7 (SunOS 5.7) machines.

This is still alpha quality code.  It has undergone only minimal testing (see
the test subdirectory) and the interfaces may change from release to release.

Features:

 * Connect to multiple databases simultaneously
