Thanks for the tip! From there I found a decent blog entry here:
http://ajlcom.instantspot.com/blog/2009/11/25/Url-Rewriting-on-Google-App-Engine
After dropping in the tuckey.org jar file I was up and running. Here
is the the initial set of URL patterns I came up with:
<rule>
<note>
index page
</note>
<from>^/$</from>
<to>/index.cfm</to>
</rule>
<rule>
<note>
Generic CFC redirect
</note>
<from>^//(.*)/(.*)$</from>
<to>/$1.cfc?method=$2</to>
</rule>
<rule>
<note>
Generic CFM redirect
</note>
<from>^/(.*).cfm$</from>
<to>/$1.cfm</to>
</rule>
So, this works for my needs. I'm sure the regex patterns could be
better but it's a start.
