I vote for Perl too, it's the simplest path for me.

Otoh Javascript is an interesting environment for this type of things.
I'm not exactly sure how easy it would be to integrate current
runtimes into the constricts of engine.

I'd like to see the Python framework support expanded to include the
Zope3 framework. I'd also advocate adding TurboGears and Pylons.

Yes, Perl.

But I am also very curious about your plans for GWT -- seems like that
would be a natural thing for you to support. Is that planned?

I think the next logic language to support would be Java because
Google already has GWT. I'm really hoping that Java (with Spring and
Hibernate) will be next on their list. I'll jump in right away if they
do :)

Hi everyone,

Please enter your feedback on the next language/framework to implement
on our issue tracker. If there's already one for the language you
want, star it, don't duplicate it.

Issue tracker:

Thank you all!

Ruby on Rails would be nice, but I would love to see a Lisp (probably
Scheme) supported. That may be unrealistic, but it would be awesome.
A real continuation-based framework would be perfect with this system.

Guys,

Please refer to Amanda's post earlier in this thread. To vote for your
language, either:
1. Create an issue here
(http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/list) or
2. Star one that already exists.

I suppose the starred threads are tracked an allow them to gauge popularity...

I'd like to see more complete Django support -- I guess an
implementation that can treat BigTable as one of the available
database options so an existing django app can be dropped in and only
a tweak to settings.py is needed for it to work.

Stupid question of the hour. What tasks are required to port pylons
over on top of GAE? I'm guessing that replacing the DAO layer is
required, but on top of that, what else is required?

1. Improve Django Support
2. Ruby on Rails
3. Java

Look... in the end, the language will not be relevant.

The framework, the tools, the methology and the engineers will :)

Oops, didn't do this right the first time.

Since RoR support seems unlikely my vote would be for Steve Yegge's

Hi Brett.

I'm trying to run Pylons on appengine.

the pkg_resourres questions can be resolved using the patches send by
Ian Bicking on the issues list.

The major blocker seems to be the subprocess, that paste requires in a
lot of places.

As subprocess is not allowed on the sandbox, the Paste tries to import
his own subproccess (2.4 compatible).

And everything dies on

import fcntl

So, I think taht we need a subprocess mock, or less sand in the box,
or adapt the PasteScript :)

I'm working on getting some of this stuff together. I have a minimal
app working with Paste Deploy and managing it with virtualenv during
development. I'm not using Paste Script at all, instead just using
paste.deploy.loadapp. I should get a basic setup script out sometime
today. It won't be "Pylons", but it'll be all the package
infrastructure to at least make debugging the next set of problem easier.

Java...it's strategic as android programmers will know java and can
use that knowledge to code their server side components on google app
without having to learn python or worst PHP or ROR. .

I agree with Arthur. Since Google's other big language is Java and
they have GWT Java just makes sense. Plus, it's really hard to find a
good, *inexpensive* way to deploy Jave web apps.

Viable, inexpensive options for RoR and especially PHP abound.

My $.02.
