Please help us test Pyrseas 0.7.0b1, a beta release of Pyrseas, a
framework for upgrading/migrating Postgres databases, which is
available from:

GitHub: https://github.com/jmafc/Pyrseas

Updated documentation is viewable at:

Read the Docs: http://pyrseas.readthedocs.org/en/latest/

Pyrseas now supports the following additional Postgres features:

- Postgres 9.3, specifically
- EVENT TRIGGERs
- MATERIALIZED VIEWs
- CLUSTER
- Storage parameters in CREATE and ALTER TABLE
- ALTER COLUMN SET STATISTICS
- LEAKPROOF qualifier for FUNCTIONs
- YAML multi-line string formatting for view definitions,
function source text and object comments

In addition, this release includes:

- All Pyrseas utilities can now use YAML-formatted configuration
files, in addition to command line options

- Multiple-file input or output to spread database object
information across a version control repository

- Data export/import to load a database with static data in
production or data subsets for testing

- New utility (dbaugment) to consistently add objects to an
existent database. This is currently an experimental
feature and covers adding audit columns to tables.

- A new Python-based interface to Postgres, inspired by *The
Third Manifesto*

We'd like to encourage Postgres users to take a look at this
beta release and to help us test it. Please follow the
development installation instructions:
