Version 2.2.0
+ * Support for prepared queries. Prepared queries are a thin wrapper around
+ the underlying database system's prepared statements functionality. They
+ provide a way to perform potentially expensive query preparations tasks
+ only once and then executing the query multiple time. For more information,
+ refer to Section 4.5, "Prepared Queries" in the ODB manual as well as the
+ 'prepared' example in the odb-examples package.
+
* Support for early connection release. Now the database connection is
released when commit()/rollback() is called rather than when the
transaction instance goes out of scope.
