+Some applications can use SQLite for internal data storage.  It's also

+code to a larger database such as PostgreSQL or Oracle.

 pysqlite was written by Gerhard H\"aring and provides a SQL interface
 compliant with the DB-API 2.0 specification described by
-\pep{249}. This means that it should be possible to write the first
-version of your applications using SQLite for data storage.  If
-switching to a larger database such as PostgreSQL or Oracle is
-later necessary, the switch should be relatively easy.

 To use the module, you must first create a \class{Connection} object
 that represents the database.  Here the data will be stored in the
