Python 3 preparation: use // and __truediv__ as needed. Tool-assisted patch. Those divisions that I thought must be integer floor divisions and rely on Python 2 integer floor division semantics are changed to use // (if any are actually meant to be floating-point divisions, that would break things). One __div__ method is changed to __truediv__ (with __div__ = __truediv__ for Python 2 compatibility).

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.
