+
+<p>DBUtils 1.0 was released on ???.</p>
+
+<p>This is the sixth public release of DBUtils.</p>
+
+<h2>Changes:</h2>
+<ul>
+<li>Added a <tt>failures</tt> parameter for configuring the exception classes for
+which the failover mechanisms is applied (as suggested by Matthew Harriger).</li>
+<li>Added a <tt>closeable</tt> parameter for configuring whether connections
+can be closed (otherwise closing connections will be silently ignored).</li>
+<li>It is now possible to override defaults via the <tt>creator.dbapi</tt>
+and <tt>creator.threadsafety</tt> attributes.</li>
+<li>Added alias method <tt>dedicated_connection</tt> for
+<tt>connection(shareable=False)</tt>.</li>
+<li>Added a <tt>version</tt> attribute to all exported classes.</li>
+<li>Where <tt>0</tt> has the meaning "unlimited", parameters can now be also
+set to <tt>None</tt> instead.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2>Bugfixes and Improvements:</h2>
+<ul>
+<li>In some cases, when instance initialization failed or referenced objects
+were already destroyed, finalizers could throw exceptions or create infinite
+recursion (problem reported by Gregory Pinero and Jehiah Czebotar).</li>
+<li>DBUtils now tries harder to find the underlying DB-API 2 module if only a
+connection creator function is specified. This had not worked before with the
+MySQLdb module (problem reported by Gregory Pinero).</li>
+</ul>
