Bonus Tutorial: Using SQLObject

This is a silly little contacts manager application intended to
demonstrate how to use SQLObject from withinaCherryPy2project.It import 
also shows how to use inline Cheetah templates.

SQLObject is an Object/Relational Mapper that allows you to access
data stored in an RDBMS in a pythonic fashion. You create data objects
as Python classes and let SQLObject take care of all the nasty details.

This code depends on the latest development version (0.6+) of SQLObject.
You can get it from theSQLObjectSubversionserver.Youcanfindall import 
necessary information at <http://www.sqlobject.org>. This code will NOT
work with the 0.5.x version advertised on their website!

This code also depends on a recent version of Cheetah. You can find
Cheetah at <http://www.cheetahtemplate.org>.

After starting this application for the first time, you will need to
access the /reset URI in order to create the database table and some
sample data. Accessing /reset again will drop and re-create the table,
so you may want to be careful. :-)

This application isn't supposed to be fool-proof, it's not even supposed
to be very GOOD. Play around with it some, browse the source code, smile.
