=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module initiates persistent database connections using DBI::BabyConnect.

This module is best understood by going through the roadmap file and the
sample programs provided with this distribution. The roadmap file is
eg/README, and the sample programs are in eg/perl.

When loading the Apache::BabyConnect module, the
module looks if the environment variable BABYCONNECT has been set to the
URI location where it can read the configuration files, and if the 
the module DBI::BabyConnect has been loaded.
The startup script instantiates DBI::BabyConnect objects with caching
and persistence enabled. Each object is connected to a data source
that is described by the database descriptor. See L<DBI::BabyConnect> for
