Ed,

> Is there a dbapi-compliant ODBC class?

Yes. There are several.

I think pyodbc is the way to go (dbapi compliant, MIT license, cross
platform, Python 2.x/3.2, etc)

pyodbc is a Python 2.x and 3.x module that allows you to use ODBC to
connect to almost any database from Windows, Linux, OS/X, and more.

It implements the Python Database API Specification v2.0, but additional
features have been added to simplify database programming even more.

pyodbc is licensed using an MIT license, so it is free for commercial
and personal use. You can even use the source code in your own projects.

Installers for Windows are available here and most Linux distributions
are starting to provide pre-compiled packages. Full source code is also
available.

Version 3.0.2 is the first official pyodbc release that supports both
Python 2 and Python 3 (3.2+).

If you are on Linux and connecting to SQL Server, you may also be
interested in Microsoft's new Linux ODBC driver:

bitness - a Google search may be required ;)

If you are on Windows, there are prebuilt installers linked on the left.
Most Linux distributions include pyodbc in their packages, but you may
need to build your own to ensure you are using the latest
