    Current status:
    The PearDB branch in CVS uses Pear::DB for the database connection. It's
    tested and works with MySQL as the back-end database. More testing is
    necessary for other back-end databases, like PostgreSQL.

    Finally, the code in the PearDB branch works on both MySQL and PostgreSQL.
    I've replaced all instances of the reserved SQL-word 'user' in the database
    schema and PHP files. In a couple files the SQL is implemented differently for
    PostgreSQL than for MySQL, due to differences in the vendor specific SQL
    dialects.

    What remains is more testing on both database backends, to squash the
    remaining bugs (if any).
