Subject: Re: ORM - Ruby Sequel v Python Sql Alchemy

I can't say too much about python, as I haven't done anything serious
in it in about 5 years. A couple of other ORMs to look into are
DataMapper and ActiveRecord.

Both ORMs that I suggested have MySQL and PostgreSQL support.
ActiveRecord is a bit heavier than DM, but has more bells and
whistles.
