+One very large database (1M+ records in 50+ separate tables) has
+been converted from PostgreSQL and gives every appearance of working
+correctly. We are rapidly approaching a "beta" release, I think...</p>

puts {<h2>Introduction</h2>
<H2>Status</h2>
-<p>The current version of SQLite should be considered "alpha" software.
-It is incomplete and is known to contain bugs. The software is
-subject to incompatible changes with each release. You should not use
-SQLite in its present form in production software.</p>
-
-<p>The purpose of releasing SQLite before it is ready is to evoke
-public comment and criticism of the software. If you find bugs
-or have any thoughts on how to make SQLite better, or would
-like to contribute code or patches to SQLite, please join
-the mailing (see below) and let us know.</p>
+<p>The SQLite code is rapidly stablizing. There are currently
+no known errors in the code. At least one large database has
+be loaded into SQLite and appears to work. Most of the major
+functionality is in place.</p>
<p>SQLite has so far been tested only on RedHat 6.0 Linux. But we
know of no reason why it will not work on any other Unix platform,

is shown on a line by itself. Each line consists of the field
name, an equal sign and the field data. Successive records are
