KInterbasDB project is a Python extension package that implements Python Database API 2.0-compliant support for the open source relational database Firebird and some versions of its proprietary cousin Borland Interbase.

In addition to the minimal feature set of the standard Python DB API, KInterbasDB also exposes nearly the entire native client API of the database engine.

What's New in This Release:
At concurrency_level 1, it was possible for a deadlock to occur if KInterbasDB simultaneously raised an exception in one thread while executing a SQL statement in another. This problem did not affect concurrency_level 2. Thanks for Atsuo Ishimoto for reporting this bug.
The official implementation of the automagic TEXT_UNICODE type translator (in the kinterbasdb.typeconv_text_unicode module) was missing support for the new character sets introduced in Firebird 2.0 (namely, the corrected version of UTF8, plus KOI8-R, KOI8-U, and WIN1258). Thanks to Oleg Deribas for bringing this to my attention.
