This came up before (back in October 2004!) but didn't go anywhere since, AFAICR. Do we want to consider including pysqlite in Python 2.5? It's the only DB adaptor that I'd really consider suitable for shipping with the distribution, because it's self-contained.

What's people's thoughts?

We shouldn't include anything without the explicit permission of the author(s); if possible, the authors should grant the PSF permission to change the license (i.e. fill out the contributor agreement).

Even better, the authors should be willing to keep the version in Python synchronized with the separate release.
