One likely problem area can be found in qp.lib.spec - specifications are very
handy, and recently spec gained support for the "set" type. No doubt you could
work around it, or customize your QP with an older version of the spec module.
Sorry, can't remember if there are any 2.4 requirements beyond that but no
doubt someone will step in clue us in.

The spec module is handy and feels very natural to use plus also leads to
cleaner readable and more reliable code through fairly dramatic reduction of
tedious type checking and initialization code.

The combo of Durus (plain ol' Python) plus qp.lib.spec I have found has

In addition to anything else that's been written, I have found that losing
SQL's query language is much less painful than I expected.

If you do need or want to continue down the SQL path, SQL Alchemy also seems
