Windows pyscopg drivers:

One of the advantages of SQLite is that there is no server, so little
need to administer the database.  Upgrades are handled by "trac-admin",
so it's pretty easy to support.

Trac 0.10 will support MySQL, but I think that after that we should
focus on using an external library to handle the database abstraction
rather than adding more backends to Trac itself.  I've added a branch in
the Trac sandbox with initial support for SQLAlchemy[1], though I'm also
keeping an eye on SQL-API[2].
