Going to lunch the other day, I was thinking about the content of such a talk. I thought it might start by contrasting the SQL approach (run a query and process the resulting output) with the very Pythonic OO approach (create a bunch of objects, modify them, commit them). But most ORMs also try to provide a Pythonic-looking interface. Should the screencast be a more general one that discusses both ORMs and non-SQL-based OODBs? On the other hand, that may be pushing what can fit into a screen cast, especially a 5-minute one. I'll think some more about a Durus screencast. BTW, another screencast idea: IPC with Pyro. --amk
