Remove 'import *' statement from dist/backends/back_mysql.py There are various 'import *' statements scattered through the code which are generally not a good thing. These should be fairly safe changes, but I'll commit them one file at a time to make it easier to track down issues with a bisect if they crop up later.

PostgreSQL/psycopg Backend
==========================

This are notes about PostqreSQL backend based on the psycopg adapter for
Roundup issue tracker.

Prerequisites
=============

To use PostgreSQL as backend for storing roundup data, you should
additionally install:

1. PostgreSQL 8.x or higher - http://www.postgresql.org/

2. The psycopg python interface to PostgreSQL:

     http://initd.org/software/initd/psycopg


Running the PostgreSQL unit tests
=================================

The user that you're running the tests as will need to be able to access
the postgresql database on the local machine and create and drop
databases. See the config values in 'test/db_test_base.py' 
about which database connection, name and user will be used.
