A custom field type could be useful, something that serializes a set rules to json. I think I even have something in place. Let me know and I'll send it over to your repo. <https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-ISEC0eNAXMI/UsfxP9jphLI/AAAAAAAAAHg/E_LKne18gDg/s1600/test.png> The json format could be like: { "URL_ENCODED_LOCAL": "URL_ENCODED_GS", .... } The question mark is whether the gs folders should be only checked or also created (api needs to be used) upon saving. > I'm mainly trying to balance my tendency to add in lots and lots of > options with keeping things simple so I can get to a release/usable > point....

I think more people will get involved once it's fully functional, officially mentioned on the Joomla site and maybe posted on some good blog like http://sitepoint.com Many developers probably don't consider GAE yet as PHP support in GAE is still experimental and there still seem to be many bugs around. My gut feeling is that devs will be using it for really heavy workloads since It really has a big potential as PaaS. I've been testing Joomla on Azure recently and would be extremely convinced to stick on it if not the fact MySQL is provided by a 3rd party company with scaling limitations and very harsh limits on free tier for testing (20 MB database !?), bigger options get very expensive. I'm also not really convinced by Windows environment though it's PaaS and I shouldn't care what it is running on. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
