This list is probably not the right place for this question, but
anyway...
I need to access the PostgreSQL database from Python. However, it
seems that the default Python wrapper is not DB-compliant. If at all
possible, I'd really like to avoid learning yet another SQL wrapper
API. (And besides, I have some DB-based MySQL code that I'd like to
convert.)
I noticed that Postgres supports ODBC. Is that known to work with
mxODBC? Does one need a driver manager as well? Are there efficiency
issues?
Is the default Python wrapper scheduled to be made DB-compliant soon?
In that case, I could wait for that, and/or participate in testing.
