Yep- a tour of SQLAlchemy [1], an open source database toolkit and
object relational mapper in Python. The tour will be SQL heavy and
Python-light, and I'm planning on focusing on the object relational
mapping part of the tool.

If you have a schema that you'd like to see mapped, send it my way and
I'll do my best to work it in to the presentation.

Cheers,
Jason

Maybe our refactored version.

Sure, rt looks fine. I see a few slightly hairy abuses in there that'll
demo nicely. Anybody have a data export I can play with?

No, that's a refactor. The actual RT database is a lot hairier.

Best,

I was referring to the standard RT schema. ;) Still looking for sample
data if anyone has rt up and running...
