replace SQLObject with SQLAlchemy (WORK IN PROGRESS - both supported!)
generic queries for SQL (not sure how to do it)
use diff files to upgrade the SQL database (a task beyond my abilities)
improve the Symbian interface (I need help compiling/testing)
improve imdbpyweb (would be nice, but I don't feel the urge)
