Fix MyManager. Add patch for MySQLdb and Python3.2. Add DelayedQuery.

=========
pgtoolkit
=========

General Python Modules
----------------------

pgmanager.py - Database connection manager (pooling etc.)
pgbrowser.py - Schema browser module
pgdiff.py - Schema diff tool

Graphical and Command Line Tools
--------------------------------

pgbrowser-gtk.py - Database browser - graphical interface (GTK)
pgconsole-gtk.py - Query console - graphical interface (GTK)
pgdiff-cli.py - Command line diff tool

MySQL - mytoolkit
-----------------

Package mytoolkit contains PgManager drop-in replacement for MySQL,
MyManager. This may be useful if MySQL interoperability is needed
for some reason.

MyManager requires MySQLdb module, which works only with Python 2.5 - 2.7.
You need patch for Python 3.2 - see `extras/MySQL-python-1.2.3-python3.patch`.

MyManager may be merged into PgManager in future, but currently there
isn't any generally usable python module for MySQL. MySQLdb isn't developed
anymore thus being practically dead, while alternatives are not mature enough.

Just use PostgreSQL with Python, it's better option in most use cases.
