I could have sworn I managed to get to them by tweaking the URL, but
according to my browser history it never happened. I must have dreamt it
(note to self: stop dreaming about SQLAlchemy)

In that case, thanks for nothing ;-)

Cheers,

its a buglike thing.   I'd have to commit new templates to the 0.5 repo.

heh0.3 and 0.4 aren't up there !   I took them down a while ago.   They 
don't work well with the build and I'm mortified by the prospect that someone 
might think they are current

In the "Quick Select" links at the top of the 0.5 docs, there's no link
to the 0.7 docs. Is this deliberate or has it just been overlooked?

Would it be worth putting some sort of big banner at the top of the
older docs pointing out that they are old?

FWIW, I *really* appreciate that you keep the old versions of the docs
around - I have an application that I maintain using SA 0.3, and just
last week I needed to refer back to the docs. I hope they never go away!
(I know they still exist in the repository, but the website is so
convenient...)

Cheers,

Simon

Its going to start the FROM chain from "t_objects_1" since that's what's in the 
columns clause, at which point you then join *to* c_objects.   
query.select_from(t_objects_2).join()... will start the FROM clause instead 
from t_objects_2.

ah.   It might not work in a version that old.   Try the select_from(table) 
approach first, and if 0.5 isn't handling it ,  you should create your joins 
using the sqlalchemy.orm.join() function, then place the fully constructed 
join() construct into select_from() - I am loathe to reference the 0.5 docs as 
people keep finding them and thinking they are current, but an example of this 
is at http://www.sqlalchemy.org/docs/05/ormtutorial.html#querying-with-joins
 

(Note to people reading this: these are the *OLD DOCS* regarding 0.5; for 
current join usage please see 
http://www.sqlalchemy.org/docs/orm/tutorial.html#querying-with-joins)
