Yep- a tour of SQLAlchemy [1], an open source database toolkit and 
object relational mapper in Python.  The tour will be SQL heavy and 
Python-light, and I'm planning on focusing on the object relational 
mapping part of the tool.

If you have a schema that you'd like to see mapped, send it my way and 
I'll do my best to work it in to the presentation.

Cheers,
Jason
