I'd recommend Django 1.0 along with the Helper or something similar. You could use Django without the Helper if you accommodate some of the import technicalities, the Helper just makes it easier. This article discusses using Django without the Helper (though I'm not sure if the article works out of the box with Django 1.0): http://code.google.com/appengine/articles/django.html
See also the article on using the Helper, and the article on using Django 1.0 via a feature called zipimport (which the Helper also supports): http://code.google.com/appengine/articles/appengine_helper_for_django.html http://code.google.com/appengine/articles/django10_zipimport.html As far as compatibility goes, the runtime environment is versioned, with the intent that changes to a given version of the runtime will remain backwards compatible with apps that run with that version. When a new version of the runtime environment is released containing incompatible changes, your app will continue to use the original version until you update your app.yaml file. I haven't tried appenginepatch, but a version of it that works with v1 of the Python runtime ought to continue to do so even when there's a v2. -- Dan On Wed, Oct 29, 2008 at 9:24 AM, Daniel Larkin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > > Hi all, > > I'd like to use Django on GAE for a small project.
