If it's merged into the trunk, there indeed will be no need to use
SQLAlchemy. It will be very nice!

Thanks for the reference! You probably mean 
http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/167/
. It's very nice. I still prefer my method, but I would like to hear
what others think about it.

(Ok, I'll say why I prefer my method. Pickle is complicated. You never
know exactly what's in that pickle file. On the other hand, a script
which copies data from one database into another is easy to understand
and modify. It also doesn't require you to write plugins to modify
classes - you just modify the script in a straightforward way. And
still, I'm biased. I would like to hear what others think.)

Noam
