I'm not sure that there is uncertainty about *which* to add.  So far
we've seen a handful of +1s for pysqlite, but a link and short
discussion about aspw.

In my opinion, because pysqlite already has a DBAPI compliant interface
to sqlite, and of us who have used it have had positive experiences, I
don't see how aspw is even competition, let alone influential enough to
push the adoption of an embedded SQL server to Python 2.6 or later.
