+Sequel is a simple, flexible, and powerful SQL database access toolkit
+for Ruby.
+
+This is the legacy 4.x.x. version. For the latest version, see the
+'sequel' SlackBuild.
+
+Sequel provides thread safety, connection pooling and a concise DSL for
+constructing SQL queries and table schemas. Sequel includes a
+comprehensive ORM layer for mapping records to Ruby objects and
+handling associated records. Sequel supports advanced database features
+such as prepared statements, bound variables, stored procedures,
+savepoints, two-phase commit, transaction isolation, master/slave
+configurations, and database sharding. Sequel currently has adapters
+for ADO, Amalgalite, CUBRID, DataObjects, IBM_DB, JDBC, MySQL, Mysql2,
+ODBC, Oracle, PostgreSQL, SQLAnywhere, SQLite3, Swift, and TinyTDS.
