I've been debating reworking some apps to run on GAE but as others have mentioned, the big hurdle at this point is the relational database issue. Google Datastore is really nice if you're starting from scratch (and would be even nicer with a few of the enhancements on the OpenBD side that others have mentioned), but reworking all the SQL in an existing app is a big undertaking of course. The hosted MySQL solution will be great in some cases, but if getting the H2 solution performing really well is feasible (and I admittedly haven't checked on the status of that effort in quite some time), that would be a fantastic addition. > > 5/ What could be made easier? > Honestly I think it's pretty darn easy as it is! Kudos to all involved with this effort. Peter Farrell and I have gotten a lot of great feedback on the presentations we've done on OpenBD for GAE, and I believe Jeff Lucido is giving a presentation on OpenBD for GAE at Dallas TechFest later this month, so that will help spread the word as well. -- Matthew Woodward [email protected] http://blog.mattwoodward.com identi.ca / Twitter: @mpwoodward Please do not send me proprietary file formats such as Word, PowerPoint, etc. as attachments. http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.html -- Open BlueDragon Public Mailing List http://www.openbluedragon.org/ http://twitter.com/OpenBlueDragon online manual: http://www.openbluedragon.org/manual/ mailing list - http://groups.google.com/group/openbd?hl=en
