    <para><ulink url="http://libdbi.sourceforge.net">libdbi</ulink> is a database abstraction layer written in C. It implements a framework that can utilize separate driver libraries for specific database servers. The <ulink url="http://libdbi-drivers.sourceforge.net">libdbi-drivers</ulink> project provides the drivers necessary to talk to the supported database servers.</para>
