Btw., someone has converted the PyGreSQL README to DocBook and I'm
currently in the process of integrating it into the Programmer's Guide.
This could be even more benefit to PyGreSQL.  ;-)  Would you be willing
to/what are your thoughts on maintaining the PyGreSQL documentation this
way for the future?  This would seem like the ideal time to make this
move.

I think PyGreSQL should keep its own version number, if only for
informational purposes.  There may be PostgreSQL releases where PyGreSQL
changes are relatively minor, in which case you only bumb the minor
version number.  Several other interfaces are using a similar approach.
