Fix html generation errors for boolean options. Code was generating xhtml form for html4 output. In xhtml, Boolean attributes like 'disabled', 'required' are represented with a value that is the same as the attribute name. E.G. <input required="required" ...>. Html 5 (and 4) represents the same as <input required ...> . Recognize booleans in one of two ways: value is None value is the same as the attribute name Make html4 and xhtml variants of cgi_escape_attrs. Have input_htmlp4 and input_xhtml call the proper variant. Also set HTMLInputMixin property cgi_escape_atrs to select proper one similar to self.input definition. Then replace calls to cgi_escape_attr with self.cgi_escape_attrs to get correct output.

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 - https://www.postgresql.org/

2. The psycopg python interface to PostgreSQL:

     http://initd.org/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.
