Power vs Dependencies: answering questions
Is the ORM available for all platforms?
I'm not certain if we need the orm layer or not. One option would be to just use sqlAlchemy's SQL Expression Language layer for abstraction and forgo the orm. sqlAlchemy's [http://www.sqlalchemy.org/ home] and [http://www.sqlalchemy.org/docs/05/intro.html intro] might help explain some things. Another is that what ever we do we will be using a DB-API so perhaps we should test how far that takes us first before adding yet another dependency. Is the ORM available for all platforms? if your asking about programming languages no sqlAlchemy is a python module. if your asking about databases the [http://www.sqlalchemy.org/docs/05/dbengine.html#supported-dbapis support databases list] is decent.
