+\subsection{The sqlite3 package}
+
+The pysqlite module (\url{http://www.pysqlite.org}), a wrapper for the
+SQLite embedded database, has been added to the standard library under
+the package name \module{sqlite3}.  SQLite is a C library that
+provides a SQL-language database that stores data in disk files
+without requiring a separate server process.  pysqlite was written by
+Gerhard H\"aring, and provides a SQL interface that complies with the
+DB-API 2.0 specification.  This means that it should be possible to
+write the first version of your applications using SQLite for data
+storage and, if switching to a larger database such as PostgreSQL or
+Oracle is necessary, the switch should be relatively easy.
+
+If you're compiling the Python source yourself, note that the source
+tree doesn't include the SQLite code itself, only the wrapper module.
+You'll need to have the SQLite libraries and headers installed before
+compiling Python, and the build process will compile the module when
+the necessary headers are available.
+
+In subsequent alpha releases of Python 2.5, I'll add a brief 
+introduction that shows some basic usage of the module.
