title: SQLAlchemy and django, is it production ready?
body: <p>Has anyone used <code>SQLAlchemy</code> in addition to <code>Django</code>'s ORM?</p>
  
  <p>I'd like to use Django's ORM for object manipulation and SQLalchemy for complex queries (like those that require left outer joins). </p>
  
  <p>Is it possible?</p>
  
  <p>Note: I'm aware about <code>django-sqlalchemy</code> but the project doesn't seem to be production ready. </p>
