# DBUtils 0.9.1 Release Notes

DBUtils 0.9.1 was released on May 8, 2006.

This is the second public release of DBUtils.

## Changes:

- Added `_closeable` attribute and made persistent connections not closeable by default. This allows `PersistentDB` to be used in the same way as you would use `PooledDB`.
- Allowed arguments in the DB-API 2 `cursor()` method. MySQLdb is using this to specify cursor classes. [Suggested by Michael Palmer]
- Improved the documentation and added a User's Guide.
