Andreas Jung raved about it the other day, and I thought I’d add my praises. It’s been ages since I used a package (that I didn’t write 
) when I thought “damn, that’s nice”. It just works the way you expect it to. It’s extremely well documented. It says it’s version 0.3.7, but don’t let that fool you - it feels very feature complete and comprehensive. The mailing list is in GMANE and Google Groups and is responsive and friendly. And once you’ve understood a few basic concepts, it just works the way you expect it to.
With Andreas’ z3c.sqlalchemy package, I’ve been able to use it in Zope quite easily, not worrying about connection handling or transactions or anything else that’s weird and low-level and boring.
Thank you!
