Consider the following pseudo model.
item
->name = "string"
version
->item_id = item.id
->version_date = "datetime"
While I can easily create a collection of the item with it's versions.
all_items = db((db.item.id > 0) & (db.version.item_id ==
db.item.id)).select(orderby=db.item.name | db.version.version_date)
How do get just all items with just the latest version of each item without
having to do this....
items = []
current_id = all_items.first().item.id
for thing in all_items:
if thing.item.id != current_id:
current_id = thing.item.id
items.append(thing)
It seems a bit silly and heavy to be doing this especially since my data
could get quite large. I imaging the database has some way to do this,
just never learned how.
Ideas on how this could be done?

Jason Brower
