ANNOUNCE: Guile-DBI version 2.1.1

[Linas Vepstas]

I was finally able to update the gna.org website for guile-dbi
with a new release.

What is it?
--------------
guile-dbi provides a simple, generic, easy-to-use scheme/guile
interface to SQL databases, such as Postgres or MySQL.

The system is split into two parts: the DBI (database independent)
part, which provides the scheme interfaces, and the DBD (database
dependent) plugins, which connect to the actual SQL server. Currently,
there are DBD backends for Postgres on MySQL.

See http://home.gna.org/guile-dbi/ for more info

-- A crash during garbage collection, during db close.
