If that has more than just 'prepare_transaction', 'commit_transaction' and 'rollback_transaction' it has no place in the DB-API IMO. These three actions are the entirety of what PostgreSQL provides and are the building blocks you need to build anything more complex (including XA). We don't need driver authors to build a transaction manager. We just need driver authors to provide the building blocks for DB-API connections to be integrated with transaction managers. -- Stuart Bishop <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.stuartbishop.net/
