Django Model is wonderfull. But SQLObject more flexible (and powerfull, as i think, and has already more db interfaces). But Django Model is tied with Django, and using Django with another OO mapping is not comfortable. Why do not working together? I can't understand. If you (Django and SQLObject) would, you'll beat everyone else in efficiency (i mean ROR and maybe some Python's frameworks). It is for all of Open Source. There a lot of concurent projects. Tons of frameworks, template systems and OO maping tools (in Python), numerous gui libraries (flame war: Qt vs GNOME), and different javascript libraries. Numerous libraries in Perl, that are not present in Python. And there is nothing we could oppose to Windows( XP Prof, 2003) + MSOffice(Open Office is behind a bit) + SQLServer(is debateable) + .NET(Mono is slow a bit : I wrote a C# log parser, it works 4min in Mono and 45 sec in .NET) + ... . Consolidation of good teams and their experience is the future of Open Source. Present is the disunity. Sorry for this boolshit and offlist. "Don't you know?Ev'rything's alright, yes, ev'rything's fine... relax think of nothing tonight." (excuse my english)
