Being the primary PySQLite maintainer, that's good to hear :)
-0 from me for adding either Gadfly or PySQLite to the standard Python
distribution. I can't see any merit in this.
I also see the danger of PySQLite/Gadfly being used for purposes they're
not appropriate if they're included in the standard distribution.
