I don't expect that it will hold a candle to SQLAlchemy No composite primary key support - http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/373 is the first thing that comes to mind (and one of SQLAlchemy's killer features). I don't think it follows a data mapper pattern. I'm not sure how much reflection it can do. Also, it's 'part' of a larger project so manpower will be limited as opposed to SQLAlchemy. I believe there are projects that are trying to stitch in SQLAlchemy into Django but I haven't really used the framework so I'm not sure. -- ~noufal http://nibrahim.net.in _______________________________________________ BangPypers mailing list BangPypers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/bangpypers
