I spoke to Ian, because he made the blog entry the same day as I was using SQLObject as an ORM exemplar in my "Using Databases in Python" tutorial, and I wanted a few words of reassurance.
You will find as SQLObject 2 appears that it's more of a refactoring than a complete revision. I suspect the maintenance of the code had become tedious because it had slowly morphed into a less-than-ideal form for its fully-developed functionality. regards Steve -- Steve Holden +44 150 684 7255 +1 800 494 3119 Holden Web LLC/Ltd www.holdenweb.com Love me, love my blog holdenweb.blogspot.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
