    author was Alligator Descartes(*descarte@symbolstone.org*), who has been
    aided and abetted by Gary Shea, Andreas König and Tim Bunce amongst
    others.

    The Mysql module was originally written by Andreas König
    <koenig@kulturbox.de>. The current version, mainly an emulation layer,
    is from Jochen Wiedmann.
