Where can I find a DB-API connection to Sybase?

The 'ctsybasemodule' apparently resides at the following URL:
  http://starship.python.net/crew/pgodman/
Whilst 'ctsybasemodule' is rather nice, I found it insufficient for my 
purposes (no "bind variables" in SQL statements) and decided on mxODBC 
instead:
  http://starship.python.net/crew/lemburg/mxODBC.html
If you decide to pursue that option, I would suggest looking at my ODBC
resources page:
  http://www.crosswinds.net/~pboddie/Python/mxODBC.html
I managed to get mxODBC working with Adaptive Server Anywhere and 
Adaptive Server Enterprise, but with the recent announcement of zxJDBC 
you could use JPython and Sybase's jConnect software instead:
