Speaking of libpqxx has anyone noticed that if you go to the website you 
are presented with
big old banner and you have to actually click:

  Continue to PQXX.TK: libpqxx - Open-Source C++ database API for 
PostgreSQL <http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/libpqxx/genpage.php?about;

Or you can wait 15 seconds... Not to mention the popup window...

Not very cool. Or presentable as a C++ api for the world's most advanced 
open
source database.
