## Overview

It is pure technical release. It fixes the dependency on the msgpack
library.

## Overview

This release offers two major features: SQL support and implementation
of the Database API (PEP-0249).

Simple example of using SQL:

 | #!/usr/bin/env python
 |
 | # In tarantool console:
 | #
 | # tarantool> box.cfg{listen = 'localhost:3301'}
 | # tarantool> box.schema.user.create('me', {password = 'secret'})
 | # tarantool> box.schema.user.grant('me','read,write,execute,create,drop,alter','universe')
 |
 | from pprint import pprint
 | import tarantool
 |
 | connection = tarantool.connect(host='localhost', port=3301, user='me', password='secret')
 | res = connection.execute('SELECT :foo, :bar', {'foo': 5, 'bar': 6})
 | pprint(res)
 |
 | # Those properties are None for SELECT, shown for the reference.
 | print('autoincrement_ids: {}'.format(res.autoincrement_ids))
 | print('affected_row_count: {}'.format(res.affected_row_count))

See the similar example implemented using the Database API on the
[wiki page][1].

The Database API becomes the base for the [django-tarantool][2] backend.

Aside of those changes, the release provides compatibility with the new
version of the msgpack library (1.0.0) and fixes several tricky cases
around `encoding=None` option.
