So it is better to move in that direction instead of trying to convert one particular form of SQL to another parallel alternative form of SQL (and then have to maintain them both... and still not have the OO/DBIx functionality). Chris' work is encouraging. ORM classes are definitely a different way of thinking about data though. The mapping is its own little ecosystem, and will require the structure to be maintained and updated (much like kohastructure.sql and updatedatabase). One great thing though, is that it combines with caching very naturally (caching an object, not just a DB row). --joe
