Description

install.txt:

* If you're using PostgreSQL, you'll need the psycopg_ package (version 1.1 --
  not version 1.0 or version 2, which is still in beta). If you're on Windows,
  check out the unofficial `compiled Windows version`_.

Note that psycopg1 is now "obsolete" (​http://www.initd.org/tracker/psycopg) and psycopg2 is no longer 'beta' (as far as I saw on the site).

At least the "which is still in beta" should be removed. And maybe it's time to recommend psycopg2 instead of 1 if there are no big issues with that.
I'll upload two patches now, one for each option :)

Has patch: set

Now leave the decision to a core dev of where patch 1 or 2, one recommends version 1.1 and the other version 2, and a core dev will know better which one works best.
