Re: sqlalchemy on IBM i.

Hi Jim

sure looks to me like it's the import; it seems interesting to me that it
can't find module "future" rather than "future.utils" - almost like the
name resolution is a problem.

I see you have "from ." in your other import statements so it seems there
is some relationship to path in the import statements that I have not
struck in my python scripts yet (all on windows)
