SQLAlchemy 0.4.0 Released
Michael Bayer writes:
I’m very happy to announce that we’ve put out 0.4.0 final. Thanks to all the contributors as well as all the beta testers who have helped us move through six beta releases, just to make sure we’ve got everything right (or as much right as we can). For those still working with 0.3, its time to upgrade ! 🙂 Lots of folks have already done it and it’s not so hard. I think this is the most well documented and easy to use SQLAlchemy yet, and its definitely the fastest by a wide margin…
