I've updated the cvs with a version with support to indexes and
tv series episodes.

The user-side part is now fast, but the imdbpy2sql.py script is again
as slow as hell (~6 hours to complete).
The problem: we need 2 indexes on the CastInfo table, one for
personID and one for movieID.
Building these indexes at insert-time is incredibly slow (the db
is already keeping track of a foreign key over the "role" column, plus
the "id" primary key that we don't need but it's required by SQLObject).

For some unintelligible reason SQObject won't permit to build indexes
at a later time and the "id" column seems to be mandatory, even if
it's not used.

If there are no ideas my plan is:
1. release this slooow version as the 2.5.
   I don't want to delay too much a new release: there are very
   important news in other data access systems.
2. work on the 2.6 release, based on SQLAlchemy (or something else);
   this should at least spare us the "id" primary key.
