FYI, You should *always* try to get DBI and DBD::xxx from my site if you are
going to get it at all.  Reason: the DBI has some internal versioning issues
upon which DBDs are dependant.  Getting DBI Version X from one place and
DBD::Y which was not built with DBI version X, can cause issues...

Regards,

Jeff
