New Web2Py framework SLASHES development time...

[mdipierro]

Hi Paul,

yes, the model designer is the one from Ondras. We modified it so that
it generates DAL (Database Abstraction Layer) code instead of SQL and
it is a work in progress.
Technically it is not pat of web2py and in fact it is not distributed
with it.
It is just one of the many web2py apps.
You can find more on http://mdp.cti.depaul.edu/appliances
