Open source application for non-profit organizations to manage volunteers
and events. Since a lot of these organizations don't have IT infrastructure
or staff, making something available that can simply be deployed to GAE is a
nice option.

See above--easy for people who don't have IT infrastructure/staff.

Not sure I get what you mean by "commercial initiatives"--you'd have to
elaborate. To me the mission of the project is to provide a world-class free

Right, agreed--I keep thinking maybe at some point GAE will stabilize, but
there's still the issue of vendor lock because if at some point in the
future Google decides it isn't worth their effort they can deprecate it like
they do many of their initiatives and APIs on a regular basis.
