I have now imported bsddb3 3.4.0. Remember to cvs up -d to get Lib/bsddb. The original bsddb module is not built anymore automatically, if it was, it would compile into a module bsddb185.

I haven't updated the Windows build process: I recommend that bsddbmodule.c is not built anymore. Instead, _bsddb.c must be compiled into _bsddb.pyd. Since this code does not work with Sleepycat 4.1, I recommend that Sleepycat 4.0 is used, available from

http://www.sleepycat.com/update/snapshot/db-4.0.14.zip

Barry wants the test suite to be incorporated also, this will happen after we decide on the specifics. I don't have plans to incorporate any of the documentation at the moment.
