pg8000-1.9.11 released

[Tony Locke]

Hi, I'm pleased to say that pg8000-1.9.11 has been released. The release notes are:

• Add support for two-phase commit DBAPI extension. Thanks to Mariano Reingart’s TPC code on the Google Code version:

  https://code.google.com/p/pg8000/source/detail?r=c8609701b348b1812c418e2c7

  on which the code for this commit is based.

• Deprecate copy_from() and copy_to() The methods copy_from() and copy_to() of the Cursor object are deprecated because it’s simpler and more flexible to use the execute() method with a fileobj parameter.

• Fixed bug in reporting unsupported authentication codes. Thanks to https://github.com/hackgnar for reporting this and providing the fix.

• Have a default for the user paramater of the connect() function. If the user parameter of the connect() function isn’t provided, look first for the PGUSER then the USER environment variables. Thanks to Alex Gaynor https://github.com/alex for this suggestion.

• Before PostgreSQL 8.2, COPY didn’t give row count. Until PostgreSQL 8.2 (which includes Amazon Redshift which forked at 8.0) the COPY command didn’t return a row count, but pg8000 thought it did. That’s fixed now.
