Yes, I just toss some options, if we agree to do it, we can list more and more...:-) (or just give pysqlite, I'll explain latter) > Not every project uses a database server.

Since our quickstart template set the defaults for it, and py 2.5 already bundled it. With pysqlite module installed, your first experience of Identity, tg-admin sql create, ...etc won't cause scary exception messages. The other benifit is that there's no need to configure sqlite server. > > In my humble opinion we shouldn't try selling the house if the person just > wants to buy a new door.

It's true they can live well without lock, but some of them may feel they are cheated if they can't lock their door.(without database access module, ORM is not functional) The bad experience is that you buy the TV home and then you found there's no remote. The clerk told you you should choose one and buy it separately. It's not 'battery included'. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears Trunk" group.
