Hi all.

I'm pleased to announce the 5th release of Gtk2::Ex::DBI ...
http://enthalpy.homelinux.org/Gtk2-Ex-DBI/

Gtk2::Ex::DBI is a helper object that makes your gtk2-perl apps data
aware.

Changes in this release:

- Formatting changes in sourcecode. I bought myself a copy of Komodo,
and decided to reformat everything to look good in there. Appologies if
this has the opposite effect for everyone else.

- Removed attempted locking of fields if 'read_only' is set.

- Fixed support for Gtk2::TextView

- Added support for DBI's last_insert_id() method. This brings us one
step closer to supporting DB servers other than MySQL. Still requires
some *very* small additions ( eg last_insert_id() on Postgres requires
some arguments to be passed ). Volunteers? I don't use Postgres

- Added POD documentation

I'm going to Cambodia for a month on the 24th, so if questions come in
after then, don't expect a reply until around Christmas sometime :)
