The newly added SQLite DATETIME arguments storage_format and
regexp apparently were not fully implemented correctly; while the
arguments were accepted, in practice they would have no effect;
this has been fixed.  Also in 0.8.3.
[ticket:2781]
doc fix
A performance fix related to the usage of the :func:`.defer` option
when loading mapped entities.   The function overhead of applying
a per-object deferred callable to an instance at load time was
significantly higher than that of just loading the data from the row
(note that ``defer()`` is meant to reduce DB/network overhead, not
necessarily function call count); the function call overhead is now
less than that of loading data from the column in all cases.  There
is also a reduction in the number of "lazy callable" objects created
per load from N (total deferred values in the result) to 1 (total
number of deferred cols).

wording about supported dialects for Query.yield_per
Fixed bug in :class:`.CheckConstraint` DDL where the "quote" flag from a
:class:`.Column` object would not be propagated.  Also in 0.8.3, 0.7.11.
[ticket:2784]
Fixed bug in ORM-level event registration where the "raw" or
"propagate" flags could potentially be mis-configured in some
"unmapped base class" configurations.  Also in 0.8.3.

Minor hybrid extension documentation update
Merge pull request #18 from davidjb/patch-1

Minor hybrid extension documentation update
- Improved the examples in ``examples/generic_associations``, including
that ``discriminator_on_association.py`` makes use of single table
inheritance do the work with the "discriminator".  Also
added a true "generic foreign key" example, which works similarly
to other popular frameworks in that it uses an open-ended integer
to point to any other table, foregoing traditional referential
integrity.  While we don't recommend this pattern, information wants
to be free.  Also in 0.8.3.

- Added a convenience class decorator :func:`.as_declarative`, is
a wrapper for :func:`.declarative_base` which allows an existing base
class to be applied using a nifty class-decorated approach.  Also
in 0.8.3.
tpo
- The mechanism by which attribute events pass along an
:class:`.AttributeImpl` as an "initiator" token has been changed;
the object is now an event-specific object called :class:`.attributes.Event`.
Additionally, the attribute system no longer halts events based
on a matching "initiator" token; this logic has been moved to be
specific to ORM backref event handlers, which are the typical source
of the re-propagation of an attribute event onto subsequent append/set/remove
operations.  End user code which emulates the behavior of backrefs
must now ensure that recursive event propagation schemes are halted,
if the scheme does not use the backref handlers.   Using this new system,
backref handlers can now peform a
"two-hop" operation when an object is appended to a collection,
associated with a new many-to-one, de-associated with the previous
many-to-one, and then removed from a previous collection.   Before this
change, the last step of removal from the previous collection would
not occur.
[ticket:2789]
- Removal of event listeners is now implemented.    The feature is
provided via the :func:`.event.remove` function.
[ticket:2268]
- reorganization of event.py module into a package; with the addition of the
docstring work as well as the new registry for removal, there's a lot more code now.
the package separates concerns and provides a top-level doc for each subsection
of functionality
- the remove feature works by providing the EventKey object which associates
the user-provided arguments to listen() with a global, weak-referencing registry.
This registry stores a collection of _ListenerCollection and _DispatchDescriptor
objects associated with each set of arguments, as well as the wrapped function
which was applied to that collection.  The EventKey can then be recreated for
a removal, all the _ListenerCollection and _DispatchDescriptor objects are located,
and the correct wrapped function is removed from each one.
- add event.contains() function to the event package, returns True
if the given target/event/fn is set up to listen.
- repair mutable package which is doing some conditional event listening
- The C extensions are ported to Python 3 and will build under
any supported CPython 2 or 3 environment. [ticket:2161]
- fix issue in join rewriting whereby we need to ensure the .key and .name
are transferred correctly for when .key is present; tests have been enhanced
to test this condition for render, result map construction, statement
execution.  [ticket:2790]
