If running on Unix, you'll need a third-party ODBC driver
from e.g. InterSolv or OpenLink. The setup should be fairly
easy to do.

On Windows you can always use the Windows ODBC Manager via mxODBC
or the win32 odbc.pyd.

More infos are available here:

A new version 1.0.0 is due to be released soon.

Thanks for the plug, Aaron ;-)
