Since you brought it up, what should the provider be for the postgresql-python 
package?  I used "provider=postgresql" and the designer won't logon to the 
database.  The simple form wizard won't get past selecting the datasource. 

However, if I use a mysql datasource, it does ask for the logon, and it works 
fine.  I just wanted to try PostgreSQL, since that's what seems to be 
supported.  Otherwise, I will just try building my apps with mysql.
