-Database Abstraction/Wrapper Layer
-==================================
-
-  **NOTE from Chris Webber:** I asked Elrond to explain why he put
-  ASCENDING and DESCENDING in db/util.py when we could just import from
-  pymongo.  Read beow for why, but note that nobody is actually doing
-  this and there's no proof that we'll ever support more than
-  MongoDB... it would be a huge amount of work to do so.
-
-  If you really want to prove that possible, jump on IRC and talk to
-  us about making such a branch.  In the meanwhile, it doesn't hurt to
-  have things as they are... if it ever makes it hard for us to
-  actually do things, we might revisit or remove this.  But for more
-  information, read below.
-
-This submodule is for most of the db specific stuff.
-
-There are two main ideas here:
-
-1. Open up a small possibility to replace mongo by another
-   db.  This means, that all direct mongo accesses should
-   happen in the db submodule.  While all the rest uses an
-   API defined by this submodule.
-
-   Currently this API happens to be basicly mongo.
-   Which means, that the abstraction/wrapper layer is
-   extremely thin.
-
-2. Give the rest of the app a simple and easy way to get most of
-   their db needs. Which often means some simple import
-   from db.util.
-
-What does that mean?
-
-* Never import mongo directly outside of this submodule.
-
-* Inside this submodule you can do whatever is needed. The
-  API border is exactly at the submodule layer. Nowhere
-  else.
-
-* helper functions can be moved in here. They become part
-  of the db.* API
