Only the current one, "v2.0", which talks to PostgreSQL-6.4 through at least
7.3.2. (My very first versions talked "v1" to PostgreSQL-6.3.x)

I hear a protocol change is coming with PostgreSQL-7.4. I'm hoping there
will be a backward-compatible release or two for transition, as there was
the last time, and that the protocol won't undergo any extreme radical
changes. Of course, this affects the ODBC and JDBC interfaces, too,
and they are much larger and presumably harder to update to a new protocol.

OK. Let's continue this on developers at pgaccess.org.
