[DB-SIG] ANN: SQLObject 0.7.0

[Ian Bicking]

I'm pleased to announce the 0.7.0 release of SQLObject.  Thanks to
Oleg Broytmann for his ongoing help on maintenance and to all the
other helpful people on the mailing list.


SQLObject is a popular object-relational mapper.  Your database tables
are described as classes, and rows are instances of those classes.
SQLObject is meant to be easy to use and quick to get started with.
SQLObject is now being used in several projects: Subway, TurboGears,
and Zope 3 (sqlos).

SQLObject supports a number of backends: MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite,
Firebird, Sybase, and MAXDB/SAPDB.
