Hey Folks,

We're building an application that uses Modeling, and a couple 
questions came up in a meeting today. The biggest concern was about 
sessions (what they called database pooling or connection pooling). I 
did have a look at EditorContextSessioning, and let them know about it, 
and it looks like it will suite our needs. However, I wanted to get 
some explicit feedback, just to be sure ;-)

Application Activity: there's going to be lots of querying, searching, 
and updating (the last to a lesser degree).
Application Framework: Apache + mod_python with the mod_python Session 
object for session management

What they meant by pooling is not what Oracle developers usually mean; 
they want to be sure that for every HTTP Session, and all of it's HTTP 
requests, there is a single connection to the database that is reused 
for the entire length of the session lifetime.

Is that, in a nutshell, what we get when we use EditorContextSessioning?

Thanks!

Duncan
