I made a mistake. Mako is pure Python but it depends on Python's 'ast' module, which isn't available in appengine. Genshi has the same problem. > SQLAlchemy is also pure Python from what I know - of course it doesn't > make much sense to use it on Google AppEngine, unless you have an > adapter for the Google storage system, something that doesn't make much > sense anyway. I don't know about Google's storage system. My point is just that many web apps have significant database needs, just as some need Numeric or charting or other things. Appengine will either have to find some way to provide those, or it won't be hosting those apps. -- Mike Orr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
