Leandro:
The only dummy questions are the ones never asked!
You can checkout a copy and stick it in the modules folder of your
application, and instead of
``import web2py_utils``
you can do
web2py_utils = local_import('web2py_utils')
Mind you, I designed this so that only the code in __init__.py gets
imported, so if you wanted pagination you will need to do.
pagination = local_import('web2py_utils.paginate')
set = pagination.Pagination(....)
Most of the code should work on GAE, I have not tested so if you run
into any problems I don't mind fixing them!
Patrick:
Its almost there! I want to get the layout manager working better so
that you can hot-swap layouts like in wordpress.
