* The MySQL FIELD_TYPE converter can now be a sequence of 2-tuples.
Item 0 is a bit mask (using FLAG.*) which must be matched. This should
be an integer. Item 1 is the conversion function. If item 0 is not an
integer, then this function is considered the default converter for
this FIELD_TYPE. Note that these tuples are considered when the query
has been executed and the result is available, so it doesn't add a
per-row overhead.
* As a result of the above, BINARY BLOB fields are now returned as
character arrays using the array.array class. Non-BINARY BLOB fields
(i.e. TEXT) are returned as strings. If unicode is enabled, they are
returned as unicode strings.
* Bump version to 0.9.3b3.
ssl should be a mapping. These are the recognized keys:
ca*, cert*, capath, key*, cipher
Items marked with * are required. All values must be strings.
They are described here:
http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/SSL_options.html
You're probably better off putting these variables into an
option file and using read_option_file instead.
SSL is supported in MySQL-4.0 and newer. Even if you don't
specify all the required parameters, the connection will probably
succeed, although without SSL.
This is not yet tested in any significant way.
mxdatetime (wrapper around mx.DateTime)
pytimes (wrapper around Python-2.3+ datetime)
stringtimes (minimal string implementation)
The logic is, if you're running Python-2.3 and are have mx.Datetime,
you probably want to use that instead of datetime.
