Hi Marc,
If you're trying to authenticate from within App Engine, you
definitely want to use AuthSub instead of ClientLogin for your
authentication mechanism because App Engine does not currently support
SSL (from the browser) so any credentials submitted to your
application would travel over the wire in plaintext. Also, there is
currently not a way to "shortcut" authentication for Google Data
properties through the App Engine authentication system.
Cheers,
-Jeff
