hey list -

as you might have noticed we've merged 0.5 into the trunk.   this  
version is already spectacular and I encourage everyone to start  
poking around.

The migration doc is being developed at 
http://www.sqlalchemy.org/trac/wiki/05Migration 
  .  The emphasis in this release is two big new paradigm shifts (i'll  
leave what those are as an exercise for the reader), honing in on a  
particular set of defaults for things (i.e. sessions), and otherwise  
locking down lots of APIs that were in a previously wiggly or  
otherwise deprecated state.

Two controversies to settle are:

        -  Python 2.3.  We'd *really* like to get off of it as it holds us  
back from working more nicely with 2.6 as well as the 2to3 tool.
         -  Unicode.   Consideration of going further into being  
"unicode everywhere", which may or may not impact end-user code (i.e.  
if you use String, you need to send u'hello' for data)

For access to the current trunk of 0.4, we're back on the 0.4 branch:

http://svn.sqlalchemy.org/sqlalchemy/branches/rel_0_4

Next release of 0.4 is 0.4.6 which should be out soon.
