For your information I ended up choosing Objectify. I picked that
because...

  * of its very informative, yet short and elegant, documentation. In
fact, it is a far more precise and explanatory description of
datastore than in Google's own GAE documentation;

  * the simple, yet powerful API. I like the fact that its very
transparent and "faithful" to datastore. Twig-Persist aims to simplify
some tasks but at the cost of transparency IMO. The below thread gives
an example of this with one-to-many references:
   
http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine-java/browse_thread/thread/f20d922ffecb310c
I like when I can control what's going on in performance critical
layers like the persistence layer.

  * there are multiple active developers. Often seen pro-open-source
comments like »the "one developer" problem is mitigated by the fact
that you can fix your own bugs/add your own features« is frivolous: I
intent to use my resources for developing applications - not for
maintaining API's.
