Kalamar: data-access framework

Hi,

A company I worked with just released its in-house framework Dyko we’ve 
been working on for 2 years.
It’s in two parts : Kraken is a lightweight web framework but I’m not 
sure it has a point anymore since Flask was released. Kalamar abstracts 
out the way you access data.

There has been discussion here about a Flask-Storage extension that 
would allow other extensions/apps to store data without forcing a choice 
of data store on the user:

Kalamar aims to be that (just not Flask-specific), but also allow you to 
use heterogeneous data stores in the same application: could have a LDAP 
directory for users, media files in a filesystem and a relational 
database for the rest of the data; and manage it all through the same API.

Please tell us what you think: http://dyko.org/

I apologize if this is not the place for this discussion.

Best regards,

Just saw it previously on reddit and replied there after I saw the 
website "stopped reading after I saw GPLv3".  Maybe I should have looked 
at it further because I saw it uses some Pocoo stuff :)  Anyways.  The 
GPL is in my opinion a pretty hostile license and you might want to 
consider replacing it with something less restrictive.

That's perfectly fine with me at least.
