Kalle, very cool - I've been looking for a good reason to finally dump Spring from my app and Tynamo seems to be pretty close to being that reason. So far, I've been using it to handle some transaction management, and to support Spring Security (for the T-S-S module). I poked through T5's own Hibernate module and it seems that it would be pretty straightforward to reproduce using JDO (which is what I use in GAE). Then, it seems like you're providing a nice alternative to Spring Security w/ tynamo's own Tapestry-security (where I'll probably have to extend a bit w/ a new implementation for a federated acount based on GAE's UserService / openID support) but still seems very doable.
Anyway, thanks for keeping the good T5 modules coming in !!
