Great news, congratulations! I'm surprised you managed to fit within the number-of-files quota. And what do you have in mind for database stuff? Implementing a google database backend for sqlobject and/or sqlalchemy? Or bypassing both? If this whole thing works it would be a good idea to promote it on the main tg website, maybe create separate downloads, installers, etc, it would create some badly needed PR for tg, I think.
