Hi all -
I'm starting a project in R to write an ORM along the lines of
SQLAlchemy (but minified). I wanted to solicit opinions on a few
subjects:
1) What is best way to start and what are the 'best' places to safely
cut corners and drop functionality?
2) Are there any components for which I'd want to consider diverging
from SQLAlchemy's approach?

Some obvious language-specific implementation issues exist, but I
anticipate those being resolvable with some thought.
My goal is to get something up and running in a few hundred hours
(leading me to question 3) is that sane?) that would necessarily be
very limited in scope: it would not support table creation and only
have a dialectical backing for MySQL. Many other components I could
leave as stubs. In any case, I want to avoid design decisions that
will limit future extensibility.

Thanks!
