Python from PostgreSQL from Python: Details for Developers

The talk will be about current state of python with postgreSQL, from both sides,


1) Using postgreSQL from python or Python postgreSQL Driver Soup

* how python gained so many slightly different ways to access the
  postgreSQL database, which ones should one know and what is still missing.

* Is there a more pythonic way to do database interaction that plain DBAPI
   
2) PL/Python - Using python as an embedded language inside postgreSQL

* State of the Pl/Python

  * where we are
  * why are we still there
  * where could we go
  * what would be needed to get there

  * could pl/python be more than "just another pl for postgreSQL"

3) Skytools - a python framework for writing postgreSQL-oriented apps

 - How did it evolve
 - What does it provide, how it integrates with standard python modules
 - What does it _not_ provide
 - When to use it
 - When to use it not
