Worked great for me, just had to add “JField” for gwt-maps.jar. This saved me a lot of time. We have a lot of smaller libraries as well, which are not really well maintained. Meaning the version we are using is not tagged, so it would be a massive headache to check out trunk everywhere and test.

Thanks a lot!

“There are some upcoming technologies that I’m not allowed to talk about right now that will expand this set of ideal applications for AppEngine dramatically.”

Way to tease. :) Is any of that from the “features on deck” here?

This stuff is hard to get right, too.

In isolating you from the implementation details of high scalability, GAE allows you to focus your resources on what matters most – your features and your customers. Can you technically do better with the right team – of course. Can you really afford that team – probably not.

(we have 50k users on GAE apps now, so I should declare the bias – but hey, not a SQL admin in sight!)

I think he did a better job of abusing the location bar than I did. :)
