This is an ORM for people who are comfortable with SQL and want to be able to use it with their objects, rather than people who like OO and don't want to think about the DBMS. L also draws inspiration from C and tries to provide as much functionality as it can via a simple declarative interface. Of course, it uses C under the hood for its implementation. =head1 EARLY VERSION WARNING B Moreover, this software is still missing a number of features which will be needed to make it more easily usable and competitive with other ORM packages. =head1 GETTING STARTED You should start by reading L. This will walk you through creating a set of classes based on a schema. Then look at L for a list of additional documentation. =head1 AUTHOR Dave Rolsky, =head1 BUGS Please report any bugs or feature requests to C, or through the web interface at L. I will be notified, and then you'll automatically be notified of progress on your bug as I make changes. =head1 COPYRIGHT & LICENSE Copyright 2006-2009 Dave Rolsky, All Rights Reserved.
