When we generate links from URL's in messages, we add rel="nofollow" to combat link spam. This change turns that into rel="nofollow noopener". This prevents the page at the end of the link from having access to the roundup window that displays the link. Details on the issue are are at: https://mathiasbynens.github.io/rel-noopener/ search web for noopener vulnerability. This problem usually requires a target="_blank" to really exploit it and we don't provide that. But adding noopener is extra protection.

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.
