When can a release for Python 3.1/3.x be expected? It would be nice if
AMD64 (x64) exes were provided as well for each release. These will be
quite useful. Thanks.

Windows or Linux AMD64 builds?  The primary problem is I don't have either at the
moment.  (I've just purged my home office of an entire rack and multiple servers. 
Starting over with smaller machines.)  I would love to have some volunteers to build
and run unit tests on different platforms, so if you know anyone please ask them.

It is time to port to 3.x.  I was holding off because the I/O subsystem was so bad in
3.0, but 3.1 looks reasonable now.

Okay. Personally I use Windows 64-bit, but I suppose there might be other users
interested in the source that works with Linux 64-bit. Thank you.

An initial implementation is checked into branch v3.

It is brand new, so the API might change a bit as we work through this.  There really isn't a standard for Python 
3 DB APIs, which I think is good at this point.  Most of the suggestions on the mailing list have been 
extraordinarily bad.  I'm taking the approach of making it conform to the existing DB API as much as possible, 
which making the appropriate changes for Unicode/bytes in Python 3.,

Builds work on Windows 64-bit.  Will be providing Python 2.7 Windows 64 2.1.8 today.

Version 3.x is still under development.  There isn't a DB API spec for Python 3 yet, so I'm reviewing my options carefully.  I'll port the 2.1.8 fixes to the 3 and make some final decisions soon.
