Hi guys, It's really great to see what effort you are making at OpenBD's to get it running in GAE.
Vince, I have 3 questions: 1) Do you know if the guys from ColdBox are open for porting their fine framework to GAE? 2) Maybe a new-bie question, but what if I would like to use the bigtable db from Google instead of a relational db, would it be possible to query against this bigtable db with cfquery? In other words, will there be some kind of db-selector attribute for cfquery? 3) Do you maybe post new features to a twitter account? Greetings from Utrecht, The Netherlands.
