Yes. SQLAlchemy is, mainly, a very higher-level DB-API that makes working with a RDBMS almost transparent (no embedded SQL unless you really wants to) without trying to pretend there's no RDBMS nor forcing you into ORM mode. ORM facilities are built on top of this. > It seems they can > both be used with TurboGears, and SQLAlchemy with Django.

I've used Django's ORM (pre 'magic-removal' version) and played a bit with SQLObject, but after an afternoon playing with SQLAlchemy and browsing the doc, I don't wan't to hear of them anymore. > and if there are even > more choices for ORM. There is. But nothing as exceiting as SQLAlchemy IMHO. Now FWIW, installing and testing is probably the quickest way to make your own opinion. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
