Before you even begin to think about "how to do this in Python", you need to think about "how to do this at all". You've got a huge range of storage paradigms there. Redis is basically a key-value store. Mongo does documents. Postgres does relations. I'm not familiar with Neo and Couch, but I assume they also have their own interesting ways of storing things. You need to figure out what it means to abstract search over such a diverse range of technologies. I honestly don't think it's possible, but maybe you've got some good ideas. In any case, you need to figure that part out before you even begin to think about how to implement it in any particular language. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
