MetaKit and PySQLite were brought up when discussing this on the
DB-SIG mailing list. However, the major problem is keeping releases of
these third party tools in sync with Python releases. The advantage
of Gadfly is that it has been in maintenance only mode for a few years
now, and can happily be uprooted and replanted in the Python CVS
repository.
