Reading all the messages I have second toughts. If psycopg2 is here to 
stay, i.e., if it will not be completely replaced by "psycopg3" (and by 
completely I mean shutting down everything about it) then we will have 
the following situation:

psycopg2 version 2.x.y
psycopg  version 3.w.z

that at first sight is a bit confusing, isn't it?
