Description: Common object storage frontend that supports
        dictionary-style access, object serialization
        and compression, and multiple storage and caching
        backends.
        
        Currently supported storage backends are:
        
        * Amazon S3 Web Service
        * Berkeley Source Database
        * Memory
        * Filesystem
        * Firebird
        * FTP
        * DBM
        * Durus
        * Microsoft SQL Server
        * MySQL
        * Oracle
        * PostgreSQL
        * SQLite
        * Subversion
        * Zope Object Database (ZODB)
        
        Currently supported caching backends are:
        
        * Memory
        * Filesystem
        * Firebird
        * memcache
        * Microsoft SQL Server
        * MySQL
        * Oracle
        * PostgreSQL
        * SQLite
        
        The simplest shove use case is:
        
        from shove import Shove
        
        store = Shove()
        
        which creates an in-memory store and cache.
        
        The use of other backends for storage and caching involves
        passing an module URI or existing store or cache instance
        to shove following the form:
        
        from shove import Shove
        
        <storename> = Shove(<store_uri>, <cache_uri>)
        
        The module-specific URI form is documented in its module. The
        URI form follows the URI form used by SQLAlchemy:
        
        http://www.sqlalchemy.org/docs/dbengine.myt#dbengine_establishing
        
        shove fully implements the Python dictionary/mapping API:

        Differences between 0.1 and 0.1.1
        
        - updated to work with SQLAlchemy 0.4.x
        
        Differences between 0.1.1 and 0.1.2
        
        - updated to work with boto 1.x
        
        Differences between 0.1.2 and 0.1.3
        
        - better clean up of file handlers for filesystem based storage
          and caching (per Larry Meyn)
          
        What's new with 0.2.1
        
         - Cleanup
         - Bunch of suggestions from Kevin Dangoor
        
        What's new with 0.2.2
        
        - remove hardcoded dependencies of dusty antiquity
        - allow override of pickle protocol (per Ling Li)
