thanks for asking, sal! there are a number of user-level libraries that we'd love to see written, but we don't have quite enough time for internally.
one of the first i can think of is a general-purpose library to support inequality filters on multiple properties in a single query. it'd most likely be implemented with geohashing or geoindexing techniques, but it'd be useful for much more than just location-based queries. more on geohashing, etc: http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine/browse_thread/thread/62fd778f6b919a7f http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine/browse_thread/thread/184e1e70ce622cc8 another would be a general-purpose ACL library for the datastore. simple whitelisting and blacklisting based on user would be a good first step. the next step could be groups and richer functionality. finally, in the recent azure thread, bFlood mentioned that it should be possible to write a compatibility layer on top of windows azure that implements the app engine APIs. using that, app developers could easily port their apps between app engine and azure. it'd be an ambitious project, but i'm sure whoever eventually does it will get a lot of press and attention. http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine/browse_thread/thread/1de7e09fe710baba/fbf73b3ce3f264a9#fbf73b3ce3f264a9 --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
