The first alpha release of MkSQL is here: http://www.mcmillan-inc.com/mksqlintro.html What is it? MkSQL is a Python package which implements a SQL front end to the MetaKit database. It implements a large subset of the SQL 2 (aka SQL 92) standard, and comes with a Python DBI version 2 interface. Prerequisites: Python 2.1 (or later). MetaKit 2.4 including the metakit.py wrapper. mx.TextTools from the egenix mxBase package. (Links on page referenced above). More Details: MkSQL can be used to query or update any existing MetaKit database which has a relational structure. Basically that means that subviews are ignored. In addition, if you use MkSQL to define your database structure, MkSQL will enforce integrity constraints on all update, insert and delete statements. Note that MkSQL is not a database server. MetaKit is an embedded database, and MkSQL does nothing to change that. License: MIT license.
