I know that Massimo has said in the past that it was a deliberate choice to do the DAL instead of an ORM (is the DAL a DAO?), and I see the contributors to Wikipedia have listed some concerns along with the advantages (client code gets to stick with working with objects ++ high level of abstraction obscures what is happening -- heavy reliance on ORM cited as major factor in poorly designed DBs --) The third approach appears to be OODBMS where the store actually is built around objects via ODMs rather than translating tables. This gets into NoSQL territory, it seems. So, educate me! /dps El 12/4/19 a las 4:33 p.m., Massimo Di Pierro escribió: > > Can you make it a module on pypi?
