What we have until now is pretty stable (AFAIK).  All the (known) bugs 
are fixed (segfaults, leaks, etc.).  So, yeah we could release it as 1.0 
and start working on the next generation, making sure it's fully 
compliant with python's DB-API (i'm not sure the current module is fully 
compliant).

Yes, I have, actually... I started implementing a MySQLdb-like module, 
which means implementing the basics in C (connection object, errors) and 
all the rest (connection object wrappers, cursors, converters, etc.) in 
python.  This would help us with all the ref. counting problems we had 
in the past (like the problem we had with the cyclic dep. between the 
cursor object and connection object for example).

Any changes in the DB2 API for 8.2 ?
