[http://www.sqlalchemy.org SqlAlchemy] is an object-oriented DB API for Python.

  ''SQLAlchemy is the Python SQL toolkit and Object Relational Mapper that gives application developers the full power and flexibility of SQL.''

  ''It provides a full suite of well known enterprise-level persistence patterns, designed for efficient and high-performing database access, adapted into a simple and Pythonic domain language.''

We talked a bit about adopting it for Trac's DB abstraction layer, eventually replacing our home grown [source:trunk/trac/db db layer].

Some experimental work has started in source:sandbox/sqlalchemy
