It's been extremely helpful. Half of me thinks I'm nuts for picking up Gears a week before the first phase of my project is due, and the other half is very glad I'm not going to be trying to write a complicated database-ajaxy app in Django. ( Though I will likely keep using it for simple CMS projects where a reskinned django admin is sufficient and the budget is not high enough to roll my own. ) > Kevin commented on his blog last night that the book was being > published this week, so I assume Nov. 9 is correct. On the other hand, I'm still running scared on this whole SO vs SA thing. I can hack around the primary key issue easy enough because it's my own DB so I can pop an auto increment id key on the many to many table and check for repetition myself if I need to. I'm worried that I am likely to shoot myself in the foot because of doc problems with SA. Honest opinions on how much of the physical books content is SO specific? I would assume the docs in the book are much better tested. ( That's what we have editors for, yay editors! ) How hard is migrating projects from SO to SA anyway? I assume if I use assign_mapper or turbo entity I can make it such that only the model code needs to be changed?
