Added the "actor" property. Metakit backend not done (still not confident I know how it's supposed to work ;) Currently it will come up as NULL in the RDBMS backends for older items. The *dbm backends will look up the journal. I hope to remedy the former before 0.7's release. Fixed a bunch of migration issues in the rdbms backends while I was at it (index changes for key prop changes) and simplified the class table update code for RDBMSes that have "alter table" in their command set (ie. not sqlite) ... migration from "version 1" to "version 2" still hasn't actually been tested yet though.

Debugging Flags
---------------

Roundup uses a number of debugging environment variables to help you
figure out what the heck it's doing. 

HYPERDBDEBUG 
============

This environment variable should be set to a filename - the hyperdb will
write debugging information for various events (including, for instance,
the SQL used).

This is only obeyed when python is _not_ running in -O mode. 

HYPERDBTRACE
============

This environment variable should be set to a filename - the hyperdb will
write a timestamp entry for various events. This appears to be suffering
rather extreme bit-rot and may go away soon.

This is only obeyed when python is _not_ running in -O mode. 

SENDMAILDEBUG
=============

Set to a filename and roundup will write a copy of each email message
that it sends to that file. This environment variable is independent of
the python -O flag.
