Just as a followup to that, you should really try to write a list of everything you think is missing from DBIx and discuss it over on the project mailing list. The framework is designed around a component architecture so it's straightforward to add or alter features. I find it unlikely you will be able to match it's features without more than a year of consistent effort. Some of the validation stuff that AR does for you could be handled by some hacking on DBIC::Validation although to be honest good design would preclude wanted to put all your validation in the physical model class. --John __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
