[omaha] Spring for Python

[Mike Hostetler]

I have some experience with SQLObject.  Spring isn't an ORM but (on
the Java side at least) it makes using ORM's easier.

What
Spring does do for databases and  Java (and Python, by looking at the
pages) is that it makes a common way to access the SQL layer.  In
Java, it is nice -- you configure your database, inject into a
SimpleJDBCTemplate object, and then you can use that anywhere you
like.  Want to change database platforms?  Just change the
config!

On the  ORM note, I'll send you one of my favorite
articles on the subject:

 For Inversion of Control, it maybe seem silly in Python

I use Java Spring all the time in Jython and I find it wonderful.
