datasette-export-database 0.3a2

datasette-export-database 0.3a2 fixes a dependency issue where pyproject.toml incorrectly pinned datasette==1.0a27, making the plugin incompatible with other Datasette versions. The fix changes the requirement to datasette>=1.0a27.

Background

- **Datasette** is an open-source Python tool (created by Simon Willison) that lets you explore and publish datasets as interactive web pages and JSON APIs. It loads data from SQLite databases and other sources. - This release is a **plugin** called `datasette-export-database`, which adds a feature to Datasette allowing users to download the underlying SQLite database file itself. - Version 0.3a2 is an alpha release, described as "embarrassingly tiny" because the only fix is a trivial dependency-bump: the plugin's config file (`pyproject.toml`) had accidentally locked it to exactly one specific pre-release version of Datasette (`1.0a27`), making it unusable with any other version. The fix widens that requirement to `datasette>=1.0a27` (any version from that point onward).
