+APSW is a Python wrapper for the SQLite embedded relational database engine. In
+contrast to other wrappers such as pysqlite it focuses on being a minimal layer
+over SQLite attempting just to translate the complete SQLite API into Python.
+The documentation has a section on the differences between APSW and pysqlite.
+APSW supports CPython 2.3 onwards and CPython 3.1 onwards.
+
+Optionally Python 3 extension will be built if Python 3 is installed.
