This module implements an OO-interface to database schemas.  Using this module,
you can create a database schema with an OO Perl interface.  You can read the
schema from an existing database.  You can save the schema to disk and restore
it a different process.  Most importantly, DBIx::DBSchema can write SQL
CREATE statements statements for different databases from a single source.

Currently supported databases are MySQL and PostgreSQL.  DBIx::DBSchema will
attempt to use generic SQL syntax for other databases.  Assistance adding
support for other databases is welcomed.

To install:
	perl Makefile.PL
	make
	make test # nothing substantial yet
	make install

Documentation will then be available via `man DBIx::DBSchema' or
`perldoc DBIx::DBSchema'.
