Upgrade SSL params for roundup-server Params were still using md5, a key size of 768 and allowed SSL 2 and 3. Now using sha512, key size of 2048 and TLS 1.1 or newer. This still doesn't fix the use of SSL in roundup-server. It has problems under both 2.7 and 3.x. Tickets in tracker opened for both,

==========================
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:

     https://www.psycopg.org/


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.
