Fix problem with cgi.escape being depricated a different way. This way uses anypy and is cleaner. Also fixes incorrect/incomplete change that resulted in escaped in TAL generated by TALInterpreter.py. The escaped quotes break javascript etc. defined using tal string: values. TODO: add test cases for TAL. This wouldn't have snuck through for a month if we had good coverage of that library.

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.
