in reply to A brief survey of the DBI usability layer modules on the CPAN

Can anyone commont on DBIx::Class? I'm asking because this is one of the two main models supported by perl's shiny new web framework, Catalyst. (At least, it's featured as one of two on the Wiki.)

Since Class::DBI, which is the basis of the other supported Catalyst model CDBI::Crud, got a lot of flack on this thread, I'm looking to get opinions on

1) if you get most of the sweetness of DBIx::Simple with DBIx::Class

2) Is DBIx:Class stable enough to use in your Catalyst dev (it's listed as experimental)

If DBIx::Class is judged too immature, how much sacrifice would it be to use DBIx::Simple in your catalyst apps instead of DBIx::Class.
