Who has reviewed sqlite/pysqlite after all? Reading the passage in the sqlite FAQ I can hardly believe that passing errors silently and coercing everything to string when it fails to be coerced to INTEGER although INTEGER was an invariant declared in the create command is on par with Pythons design philosophy. In other cases doctoral dissertations are written about whether a keyword or some punctuation shall be used for decorator syntax and in this case everything must be rushed into the code base of the standard library? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
