Hello Stormers, I am planning to give a brief presentation about Storm at the DFW Python user group this coming Saturday, and am looking for some ideas.
Here is my current list of topic ideas: * briefly review the tutorial for those who missed it in prior meeting * source code overview, discussion of architecture * look at test runner * examine individual tests to see examples of using Storm * look at TODO list, README, and NEWS released with .12 * look at branches posted in LaunchPad (such as Oracle backend) * find some interesting tracepoints step through using pdb (such as Store.flush() ) * discuss exception injection, which injects Storm exceptions into dbapi modules exception inheritance path * lead into a discussion of using bzr (most of us use SVN) Can anyone add to this list of ideas, or provide any testimonials about why they find Storm interesting or practical? Also, are there any existing open source projects using Storm, so I can show some examples of where it is being used? Closed source projects using Storm would also be good to hear about. I have heard that Canonical Landscape uses Storm, but I am not sure. Also, I have not heard any news about whether LaunchPad has successfully transitioned from SQLObject to Storm. I am planning to contrast with SQLAlchemy; some discussions here show the thinking which motivated Storm as an alternative to SQLAlchemy https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/storm/2007-July/000024.html http://programming.reddit.com/info/24oo3/comments Please let me know if anyone has ideas to suggest. -- Brad Allen Sr. Software Developer ZeOmega Open Minds' Open Solutions 2591 Dallas Parkway #408 Frisco TX, 75034 http://www.zeomega.com -- storm mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/storm
