Overview of competing Python modules?

Has anyone ever compiled an overview of competing Python modules?
Something like "there's the standard cvs module and the one from
pycvs.sourcefor ge.net but most people use cvs (or pycvs) because it's
<whatever>".

I'm particularly interested in competing modules for:

* CVS formatted files

* XML formatted files

* Database connectors to
MySQL, PostgreSQL, Sybase, MSSQL and ODBC
Thanks, Thorsten

How would anybody that?

For database modules look at:

Try the Python wiki: <http://www.python.org/moin/FrontPage>

Also, I've had fairly good results from typing the general topic and a
couple of competitors into a single google web or usenet search, e.g.

postgresql python psycopg pypgsql

I'm realizing I didn't frame my question well. What's ***TOTALLY COMPELLING*** about Ruby over Python? What makes you jump up in your chair and scream "Wow! Ruby has *that*?

Variations on style are of no interest to me. I'm coming at this from a...

I am a very satisfied user of Python and have been for number of years. I would never willing use another language. I wish all good things for Python, and that moves me to express some thoughts about Python's future prospects.

Hi Marc-Andre, Thanks for the suggestion. I opened a ticket for this issue: http://bugs.python.org/issue4204 Now I understand the state of the multiprocessing module, but it's too bad to see math, mmap and readline modules, that worked fine before, cannot be built anymore.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
