Following discussions with Kapil, Christian and Martin I've developed zope.sqlalchemy. The aim is to provide a common base for transaction integration. It does not attempt to define any particular way to handle database configuration as there is not yet consensus on the best way to handle it.

I've uploaded it to zope svn and pypi. See http://pypi.python.org/pypi/zope.sqlalchemy

Currently it depends on a development version of SQLAlchemy. I hope to make a release following the 0.4.6 release of SQLAlchemy.

See pypi or the readme for details, but briefly usage is something like:

    >>> engine = create_engine('sqlite:///')
    >>> Session = scoped_session(sessionmaker(
    ... bind=engine, transactional=True, autoflush=True,
    ... extension=ZopeTransactionExtension()))
    >>> session = Session()
    >>> session.save(User(name='bob'))
    >>> transaction.commit()

Any comments appreciated.

Laurence
