I'm actually running off of trunk already (latest changeset is 1410 (feb4ddb2d659), committed 14 hours ago).
The book example only demonstrates using with_alias in LEFT JOINs. Is this a limitation? If it makes any difference, I am running dal.py as a standalone module for a non-web2py project. (Speaking of using it as a standalone module, I almost wet myself when I saw how easy it was to use it that way. Nice work on the re-write.)
