SQLAlchemy 0.7.1 is now available.   The release is mostly a bugfix release 
since 0.7.0 including a few regressions, a few bugs specific to 0.7, and mostly 
issues that were also backported to 0.6.8.   While the release cycle is a 
little shorter this time, its mostly because I'm putting out 0.6.8 at the same 
time which has had a slightly longer cycle due to 0.7 coming out, and the 
issues here are all fairly minor.

A new feature is present too - the long standing restriction on 
"self-referential delete-orphan" cascade has been lifted now that 0.7 doesn't 
check on standalone "orphans".

0.7.1
=====
- general
  - Added a workaround for Python bug 7511 where
    failure of C extension build does not 
    raise an appropriate exception on Windows 64
    bit + VC express [ticket:2184]

- orm
  - "delete-orphan" cascade is now allowed on
    self-referential relationships - this since
    SQLA 0.7 no longer enforces "parent with no 
    child" at the ORM level; this check is left
    up to foreign key nullability.  
    Related to [ticket:1912]

  - Repaired new "mutable" extension to propagate
    events to subclasses correctly; don't 
    create multiple event listeners for 
    subclasses either.  [ticket:2180]

  - Modify the text of the message which occurs
    when the "identity" key isn't detected on 
    flush, to include the common cause that
    the Column isn't set up to detect
    auto-increment correctly; [ticket:2170].
    Also in 0.6.8.

  - Fixed bug where transaction-level "deleted"
    collection wouldn't be cleared of expunged
    states, raising an error if they later
    became transient [ticket:2182]. 
    Also in 0.6.8.

- sql
  - Fixed bug whereby metadata.reflect(bind)
    would close a Connection passed as a
    bind argument.  Regression from 0.6.

  - Streamlined the process by which a Select
    determines what's in it's '.c' collection.
    Behaves identically, except that a 
    raw ClauseList() passed to select([]) 
    (which is not a documented case anyway) will
    now be expanded into its individual column
    elements instead of being ignored.

- engine
  - Deprecate schema/SQL-oriented methods on 
    Connection/Engine that were never well known
    and are redundant:  reflecttable(), create(), 
    drop(), text(), engine.func

  - Adjusted the __contains__() method of 
    a RowProxy result row such that no exception
    throw is generated internally;  
    NoSuchColumnError() also will generate its 
    message regardless of whether or not the column 
    construct can be coerced to a string.  
    [ticket:2178].  Also in 0.6.8.

- sqlite
  - Accept None from cursor.fetchone() when
    "PRAGMA read_uncommitted" is called to determine
    current isolation mode at connect time and
    default to SERIALIZABLE; this to support SQLite 
    versions pre-3.3.0 that did not have this 
    feature.  [ticket:2173]

- postgresql
  - Some unit test fixes regarding numeric arrays, 
    MATCH operator.   A potential floating-point
    inaccuracy issue was fixed, and certain tests 
    of the MATCH operator only execute within an 
    EN-oriented locale for now.  [ticket:2175].  
    Also in 0.6.8.

- mysql
  - Unit tests pass 100% on MySQL installed
    on windows.

  - Removed the "adjust casing" step that would
    fail when reflecting a table on MySQL
    on windows with a mixed case name.  After some
    experimenting with a windows MySQL server, it's
    been determined that this step wasn't really 
    helping the situation much; MySQL does not return
    FK names with proper casing on non-windows 
    platforms either, and removing the step at
    least allows the reflection to act more like
    it does on other OSes.   A warning here
    has been considered but its difficult to 
    determine under what conditions such a warning
    can be raised, so punted on that for now - 
    added some docs instead. [ticket:2181]

  - supports_sane_rowcount will be set to False
    if using MySQLdb and the DBAPI doesn't provide 
    the constants.CLIENT module.
