In deference to Perl, there's nothing quite as good as DBI, IMHO.
I've used cx_Oracle and DCOracle2 and I prefer cx_Oracle. With cx_Oracle
you can directly exec PL/SQL and Oracle supplied packages. It also has a
nice wrapper function for getting at LOB's without having to deal with
dbms_lob. You can easily do connection pooling with cx_Oracle's usage of
O9i's enhanced OCI capabilities. Blah, blah, blah. Check it out at
http://www.computronix.com/utilities.shtml.
Of course there's ODBC and even JDBC with Jython. Check out the Database
SIG in python.org.

Steve, I think it is a great idea to try showing off "ugly duckling"

"right" direction.

Looking forward to finally figure out "The Meaning of Life" on IOUG...
