Accept header parsing fixes. Now return first acceptable match rather than last. If not acceptable match in accept, 406 error returns list of acceptable types as text string. application/xml is listed in acceptable types only if dicttoxml is installed. Handle q > 1.0 by demoting q factor to 0.0001 making it unusable. Test cases for all this code. XML is commented out as we don't install dicttoxml.py.

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.
