I've found SQLobject to be a really good way of poking objects in an SQL database with zero hassle. It can also use SQLite (which I haven't tried) which gets rid of your large rdbms process but also gives you a migration path should the problem expand. > ZODB is also a big piece of software to install.

ZODB looks fun. I just wish (being lazy) that there was a seperate debian package for just it and not the whole of Zope. -- Nick Craig-Wood <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- http://www.craig-wood.com/nick -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
