>> It would be nice if people actually used tools like this rather than tried to bang their own together with mysql_query.

Totally agree with this.

After getting super impressed by Django's South migrations[1] app, I wrote a minimal migrations tool[2] for PHP-MySQL projects without checking if solutions already existed :-). Used it in two projects and it made life a lot easier for me and the team.

This looks much better though. Will definitely give it a try for my next PHP project.

Yep, South is pretty much mandatory nowadays. I also use django-mediagenerator. Does anyone have a better library for media management to recommend?
